In a per-component installation the generated installation scripts
are invoked once for each component.
Per default custom installation script code added by install(CODE|SCRIPT)
only runs for one specific component in this context.
The new ALL_COMPONENTS option allows custom script code to be run once
for each component being installed.
Comments at the bottom of the docs for add_compile_options() and
target_compile_options() recommend using other commands if setting
compiler definitions. Change the examples we use for the SHELL:
functionality to use -option instead of -D so that we don't violate our
own recommendations. This also makes the examples more
appropriate for use with link options as well.
Tweak the wording to not specify the type of option being discussed.
This will already be clear from the page the text is included into and
it avoids naming unrelated option types for the given page.

Make it even clearer that for the signature `<version>...<version>` that
the second value is only used for policies, and is not a clamp range
of supported CMake versions.

The meaning of "absolute path" was previously assumed knowledge,
but a number of special cases were left unspecified. The way some of
these are handled differs to the way that cmake_path(IS_ABSOLUTE)
works, so document those special cases so that the differing behavior
between these two commands is clearly defined.
This facility is very useful for 'Ninja Multi-Config' and required
as well for future support of DEPFILE in 'Xcode' and 'Visual Studio'
generators (#20286).
When using `add_library` to create an `IMPORTED` library target, there
are a few target properties that are essential to correctly tell CMake
about the library file. We already cover `IMPORTED_LOCATION` and
`IMPORTED_IMPLIB`. Add `IMPORTED_SONAME` and `IMPORTED_NO_SONAME`,
which are important in certain cases.

The previous docs did not make clear that at most only one of the three
permissions-related options can be given for configure_file() or
file(GENERATE) and that USE_SOURCE_PERMISSIONS is already the
default behavior for these commands.
Use consistent wording to refer to the input and output files for
configure_file().
Add missing "versionadded" directives on some of these keywords.
Use the consistent wording and keyword ordering between the
configure_file(), file(GENERATE) and file(COPY) commands.
Define `PROJECT_IS_TOP_LEVEL` and `<PROJECT-NAME>_IS_TOP_LEVEL`. The
latter is a STATIC cache entry just like other `<PROJECT-NAME>_*`
variables so that it is globally scoped.

Since commit c2dc7e0f53 (Help: Convert genex documentation to sphinx
domain objects, 2021-01-15) we can use `:genex:` cross-references to
link to named generator expressions. Update some places to do this.
This is meant to demonstrate the capability, not as a comprehensive
sweep.
Documentation updates in commit 02f527c66a (Find: Provide global
controls for the `NO_[]_PATH` call options, 2019-06-12,
v3.16.0-rc1~541^2) accidentally switched the `find_library`
documentation to mention `INCLUDE` where it should be `LIB`.
While at it, update `find_file` and `find_path` to mention
`INCLUDE` and `PATH` in the order they are considered.
