* Wraps the llpkgc parser with cmPkgConfigParser
* Adds various resolution and mangling code under cmPkgConfigResolver
* Documents new command cmake_pkg_config(EXTRACT). Documentation is written with
the assumption additional subcommands will be added soon.
* Adds various tests for the above
Projects can use the new command to request file API replies for the current
run. No query files are generated, the query is tracked internally. Replies are
created in the file system at generation time in the usual way.
Fixes: #24951
These new capabilities enable to manage link directories
Two new properties:
* target properties: LINK_DIRECTORIES and INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES
One new command
* target_link_directories(): to populate target properties
Fixes: #17215
This family enable to manage link flags
Three new properties:
* directory property: LINK_OPTIONS
* target properties: LINK_OPTIONS and INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS
Two new commands
* add_link_options(): to populate directory property
* target_link_options(): to populate target properties
Fixes: #16543
Implement a native `cmake_parse_arguments` command that is fully
compatible with the documented behaviour of the previous implementation.
Leave the CMakeParseArguments module empty but existing for
compatibility.
In CMake 3.0, the load_command command was deprecated. However, the
position of load_command in the help TOC was not fixed at that time:
it was still listed as a "Normal Command".
The command has been documented as 'deprecated', but it is not really
slated for removal and can still be used. Clarify this in the
documentation. While at it, revise the documentation to use wording
more consistent with that now in target_link_libraries.

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.
Add a :maxdepth: option to all toctree directives to limit their depth
to 1. We do not want subheadings from individual documents to pollute
the already large lists of CMake Domain objects.
Add the man page description line as explicit markup at the top of each
Help/manual/*.rst file and scan it from conf.py to automatically
generate the man_pages Sphinx configuration value. This reduces the
number of places that need to be changed when a new manual is added.
