Find places that are currently relying on diagnostic-specific message
types to issue diagnostics and replace these with calls to the new
diagnostic methods.
There are exactly two places that use `ParseResult::AddKeywordError`:
the parser itself, and the `set` command. Adjust the format of the
message generated by the latter to be consistent with the former.
KWSys's SystemTools::PutEnv implementation, on Windows, has long
interpreted `A=` as unset. This differs from the behavior on other
platforms. Code the distinction explicitly in `set(ENV{VAR})`.
Issue: #27285
Add the support of CACHE{variable} syntax to enable:
* better consistency with other commands which use this syntax
* more flexibility regarding cache variable options
Run the `clang-format.bash` script to update all our C and C++ code to a
new style defined by `.clang-format`, now with "east const" enforcement.
Use `clang-format` version 18.

This changes `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` to take a `cm::string_view` as value
argument instead of a `const char *`.
Benefits are:
- `std::string` can be passed to `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` directly without
the `c_str()` plus string length recomputation fallback.
- Lengths of literals passed to `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` can be computed at
compile time.
In various sources uses of `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` are adapted to avoid
`std::string::c_str` calls and the `std::string` is passed directly.
Uses of `cmMakefile::AddDefinition`, where a `nullptr` `const char*` might
be passed to `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` are extended with `nullptr` checks.
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

This topic was never tested without some follow-up commits. The
GetCacheEntryValue API returns a pointer to memory freed on return.
It will have to be revised along with the rest of the original topic.
Use the clang RemoveCStrCalls tool to automatically migrate the
code. This was only run on linux, so does not have any positive or
negative effect on other platforms.
Just as
set(VAR "")
sets VAR to an empty string in the current scope, the code
set(VAR "" PARENT_SCOPE)
is documented to set the variable to an empty string in the parent
scope. Fix the implementation to make it so.
The code "set(VAR PARENT_SCOPE)" unsets VAR in the parent scope.
Implement this case explicitly next to where "set(VAR)" is explicitly
handled to unset VAR in the current scope.
