This change ony concerns directives that appear in the document body.
The guidelines for inserting version directives:
* Baseline version is CMake 3.0, i.e. directives start at 3.1.
* Always use `.. versionadded::` directive, avoid ad-hoc version
references. Exception: policy pages.
* For new command signatures, put `versionadded` on a separate line
after the signature.
* For a group of new signatures in a new document section,
a single version note at the beginning of the section is sufficient.
* For new options, put `versionadded` on a separate line before
option description.
* If all the option descriptions in the list are short one-liners,
it's fine to put `versionadded` on the same line as the description.
* If multiple option descriptions in close proximity would have
the same ..versionadded directive, consider adding a single
directive after the list, mentioning all added options.
* For compact value lists and sub-option lists, put a single
`versionadded` directive after the list mentioning all additions.
* When a change is described in a single paragraph, put
`versionadded` into that paragraph.
* When only part of the paragraph has changed, separate the changed
part if it doesn't break the flow. Otherwise, write a follow-up
clarification paragraph and apply version directive to that.
* When multiple version directives are close by, order earlier
additions before later additions.
* Indent related lists and code blocks to include them in the scope
of `versionadded` directive.
Issue: #19715
Now, several `INTERFACE_*` properties can be set on `IMPORTED` targets,
not only via `set_property` and `set_target_properties` but also via
`target_compile_definitions`, `target_compile_features`,
`target_compile_options`, `target_include_directories`, `target_sources`
and `target_link_libraries`.

Extend sentences in other documentation linking to this manual to
say that it has a list of supported compilers.
Co-Author: Brad King <brad.king@kitware.com>
Link to it from the documentation of related properties, variables
and commands.
Extend the cmake-developer(7) documentation with notes on
extending feature support for compilers.
Add properties and variables corresponding to CXX equivalents.
Add features for c_function_prototypes (C90), c_restrict (C99),
c_variadic_macros (C99) and c_static_assert (C11). This feature
set can be extended later.
Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.
This can be used to set the compiler features required by particular
targets. An error is issued at CMake time if the compiler does not
support the required feature. If a language dialect flag is required
by the features used, that will be added automatically.
Base the target_compile_features command on cmTargetPropCommandBase. This
gives us 'free' handling of IMPORTED, ALIAS, INTERFACE, non-compilable
and missing targets.
