Brad King ad3c2c0b03 Help: Normalize and consolidate standard policy advice paragraph
Every policy's documentation has a paragraph on what version of CMake
introduced it, how to set the policy, and whether CMake warns if the
policy is not set.  The wording of this paragraph has diverged across
policies over time.  Factor the paragraph out into a standard advice
document included by every policy.

.. versionadded:: 3.18
It is not allowed to create an ``ALIAS`` target with the same name as an
another target.
In CMake 3.17 and below, an ``ALIAS`` target can overwrite silently an existing
target with the same name.
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to allow target overwrite.
The ``NEW`` behavior of this policy is to prevent target overwriting.
