find_package: Document <package>_FIND_* variables (#13142) 

When loading a find module or package config file the find_package
command defines several variables to provide information about the
caller's request.  Previously this was documented only in the
Modules/readme.txt file which is not distributed.  Document the
behavior explicitly in the main find_package documentation.
