With some of the content expanded, reorder a few paragraphs
and tweak some of the wording to improve the flow.

This generator expression does not report the locations of `.dll`
files on imported targets with the `UNKNWON` type, since their
`IMPORTED_LOCATION` refers to the import library and not the DLL.
Fixes: #22845
In commit c9568de52c (install: Add CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE variable
(#13761), 2014-06-24, v3.1.0-rc1~370^2~1) we incorrectly documented
that `CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE` controls the status message for
`file(INSTALL)`. Revert that.
Fixes: #17162
Mention of the fallback of the command options to the CMAKE_...
variables was repeated in places. The wording was also a bit
unclear about whether the fallback only occurred when neither
TLS or neither NETRC option was given to the command. Move
the fallback details directly to each relevant option instead.
Also use cross-referencing to the variables where it was not
linked previously.
The explanation of the basic and full signatures was interwoven tightly
with that of the Module and Config search modes. Config mode is
supported by both signatures, which made the structure of the
command documentation a bit confusing.
Add a section at the start which unambiguously describes the two
modes, including the fallback functionality between them. Move the
text about this out of the basic signature section, leaving just a
description of the basic syntax with a note that it is supported by both
search modes. This makes the basic signature section more focused.
Drop the Module and Config mode parts of the titles for the basic and
full signature sections. Those are now more precisely covered by the
new opening section, so the Basic Signature and Full Signature sections
are now clearer in what they cover.
Swap the order of the Search Procedure and Version Selection sections
to improve the logical flow. Also add "Config Mode" to their titles to
make it clearer what they apply to. Add a note at the start of both
sections to highlight their relationship to the basic and full signatures.

An new environment variable 'CMAKE_INSTALL_MODE' is introduced,
which can be used to ask CMake to create symbolic links
instead of copying files during a file(INSTALL ...).
The operation is at the file level only, directory trees are
still created using actual directories, not links.
