Since KWSys commit `4feb470ab` (SystemTools: Remove GetActualCaseForPath
from CollapseFullPath, 2024-10-23), imported by commit ede7f2afa6 (KWSys
2024-10-24 (e1acde2e), 2024-10-24, v4.0.0-rc1~589^2~1^2), the KWSys
`CollapseFullPath` function that we use to normalize source file paths
no longer looks up the on-disk case of file paths. This change was
intentionally made to reduce unnecessary disk accesses. The change may
affect Windows-only projects that were never built on a case sensitive
filesystem. Call out the change in the 4.0 release notes.
Issue: #26854
In commit 7b19531291 (macOS: Do not pass any SDK/-isysroot to compilers
by default, 2024-11-06, v4.0.0-rc1~511^2) we forgot to update the
documentation of `CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT`.
Fixes: #26846
Extend commit 1a35351125 (Add CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM to help
configure outdated projects, 2025-02-13, v4.0.0-rc1~12^2) with an
environment variable to initialize the cache entry. That will make it
easier to use when `cmake` is invoked under layers of scripting.
Closes: #26715
Provide packagers and end users with a way to try configuring projects that
have not been updated to set their policy version to a supported level.
Closes: #26698
This allows projects to use `if(AIX)` blocks instead of spelling
out `if(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME STREQUAL "AIX")`. We already have similar
variables for many other platforms.
The variable CPACK_ARCHIVE_FILE_NAME (added in 9e06e97d30)
only works if per-component packaging is enabled. This isn't obvious
from the documentation.
Make it also work for non-component packages and adjust documentation.

Indenting a list relative to the previous paragraph creates
a blockquote. Combined with the natural list indent it results
in an overly large left margin.
Covers almost all blocks containing actual code, except:
* Parsed-literal blocks can't be highlighted, including many command
summaries and substitution-heavy docs like find_... commands.
This is a Sphinx limitation.
* Code with errors, like CMP0049, DEPLOYMENT_ADDITIONAL_FILES,
DEPLOYMENT_REMOTE_DIRECTORY, @PACKAGE_INIT@ substitution in the
tutorial, bracket arguments/comments in cmake-language.7 and
cmake-developer.7.
* FindQt4 module, which needs reformatting.
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.

`find_package(CURL CONFIG)` provides `CURL_VERSION` from the upstream
cmake package version file.
Upstream curl commit `699ac9430c` (cmake: publish/check supported
protocols/features via `CURLConfig.cmake`, 2024-12-29) extends the
upstream cmake package to provide our old `CURL_VERSION_STRING`.
Provide both names from CMake's own module to aid transition.

CMake now provides the CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_MODE variable which specify how
the link step is done. So, the CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_MODE variable
is no longer needed.
