Protect our `$0` reference in the shell as `"$0"`. Otherwise it works
with a space in the path only due to an insecure Windows feature.
Prior to this fix, any installer using the option added by commit
v2.8.9~234^2 (Added CPACK_NSIS_ENABLE_UNINSTALL_BEFORE_INSTALL,
2011-06-11) exposes a local privilege escalation vulnerability.

Revert commit v3.6.0-rc1~160^2 (try_compile: Honor
CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> changes, 2016-04-11). The behavior it
introduced can break projects that depend on the lack of such behavior.
We will have to introduce a policy or other mechanism to enable the
behavior in a compatible way. Simply revert it for now.
See issue #16174.
Move all development release notes into a new version-specific document:
tail -q -n +3 Help/release/dev/* > Help/release/3.6.rst
git rm -- Help/release/dev/*
except the sample topic:
git checkout HEAD -- Help/release/dev/0-sample-topic.rst
Reference the new document from the release notes index document.
Add a title and intro sentence to the new document by hand.
