Replace our hard-coded default for `/RTC1` with a first-class
abstraction to select runtime checks from an enumeration of logical
names. Add a `MSVC_RUNTIME_CHECKS` target property and corresponding
`CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_CHECKS` variable.
Removing the old default flag requires a policy because existing
projects may rely on string processing to edit them and choose
runtime checks under the old behavior. Add policy CMP0184 to
provide compatibility.

This variable define how the link step is done. Possible values are:
* DRIVER: the compiler is used as driver for the link step
* LINKER: the linker is used directly for the link step.
Adds the ``--project-file`` command-line option to modify the default script
name loaded by CMake and ``add_subdirectory`` to values other than
``CMakeLists.txt``.
Fixes: #21570
Teach `export()` and `install(EXPORT)` to record this setting on the
imported targets they generate. Make this property's non-presence
authoritative on imported targets since they represent what was built
elsewhere.
Add a way to specify, in a portable way, to raise an error for any
warning during the link step. For that purpose, define:
* CMAKE_LINK_WARNING_AS_ERROR variable
* LINK_WARNING_AS_ERROR target property
Fixes: #25343
The `BUILD_TESTING` variable is referenced in `add_test` and
`enable_testing`. It should be documented as it controls the
behavior tests working when projects use `include(CTest)`.
Add documentation to clarify that `find_package` searches paths in the
specified order and stops at the first match. Clarify documentation of
`CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_SORT_*` to match the actual behavior.
Note that no behavior is actually changed, this merely improves the
documentation to reflect actual behavior rather than seeming to imply
something else.
Also, update the test to verify that what we claim in the updated
documentation is what's actually happening.
For cases where a CMAKE_XXX variable provides a default value for a
XXX target property, the convention used in the documentation is to
put the detailed explanation in the target property docs, leaving the
variable docs to be fairly minimal and cross-reference the target
property docs for details.
When the (CMAKE_)LINK_LIBRARIES_STRATEGY docs were first added,
they were the opposite of this convention, putting the details in the
variable docs instead of the property docs. This change moves the
details to the property docs to make it consistent with the prevailing
convention used elsewhere.
