Add a replacement template for the variables, and link to them from
the documentation for the find_* commands.

The CMake variable :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH` specifies one or more

effectively "re-roots" the entire search under given locations.
Paths which are descendants of the :variable:`CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX` are excluded

CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH
--------------------
List of root paths to search on the filesystem.
This variable is most useful when cross-compiling. CMake uses the paths in
this list as alternative roots to find filesystem items with :command:`find_package`,
:command:`find_library` etc.

This variable controls whether the :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH` and
:variable:`CMAKE_SYSROOT` are used by |FIND_XXX|.
If set to ``ONLY``, then only the roots in :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH`
will be searched. If set to ``NEVER``, then the roots in
:variable:`CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH` will be ignored and only the host system
root will be used. If set to ``BOTH``, then the host system paths and the
paths in :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH` will be searched.
