If someone in KDE wants to port away from OLD policies, they might want to do
so one policy at a time. This patch will allow them to use
find_package(KDE4 NO_POLICY_SCOPE)
in callers to get around the CMP0011 warning, while still getting the policy
settings contained within.
It costs an extra cmMakefile member and extra code to maintain in
directory property handling. Remove documentation note that it
is read-only and specify high-level command to populate it.
The storage of a pointer means that the ownership and lifetime are
externally determined, which is harder to reason about. It also imposes
API constraints, requiring APIs to return references to backtraces.
This pointer storage was introduced in commit v3.1.0-rc1~425^2~3 (genex:
remove the need for backtraces, 2014-05-23). As backtraces are now cheap
to copy around, just do that instead.
The module is not needed anymore for try_compile or try_run. It cannot
be used with CMP0022 NEW behavior due to generator expressions in
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES, so document it as deprecated. Whatever
problems other than try_compile and try_run anyone tried to solve with
this module will have to be addressed another way.

Add variable CTEST_CHANGE_ID to configure the setting. This allows
CTest clients to give CDash information about what change is being
tested so that CDash can take actions to report the results (e.g. to a
pull request page).
Package file names that are found during validation
should be preserved in FOUND_FILE_${NO} variables
that can be later used in custom VerifyResult scripts.

Drop the partial documentation of properties from the command
documentation and reference the main properties manual instead.
Otherwise readers may not realize there are many more properties.
