Many projects put their project() call first, but the actions taken
by this command can be influenced by policies and other information
set by a call to cmake_minimum_required. Document in each of these
two commands that cmake_minimum_required should be called first.

The documentation of this variable in the CTest module is outdated
and has been superseded by the ctest(1) manual. In particular, the
latter mentions that it works with the Ninja generator as well as
makefile generators. Remove the documentation from the CTest module
and replace it with a link to the main variable documentation (which
already references the ctest(1) manual).

Green Hills MULTI is an IDE for embedded real-time systems. The IDE's
product page can be found here:

It supports cross compiling on ARM, Intel x86, and other architectures
with various operating systems. The IDE exists on Linux and Windows
host systems, but CMake will currently only generate the project files
on Windows host systems.
The UPPERCASE name was inconsistent with config-packages, the
find_dependency macro, and even FPHSA itself, which expects
components to be specified with names matching ExactCase.
The FOUND_VAR was only permitted to have two possible values, and
now both are set for compatibility. Document it as obsolete, and
adjust the code for the same. Users of the variable should just
remove it.
We never implemented them for VS 11 (2012), 12 (2013), or 14 (2015).
For VS 10 (2010) the reload macro does not work correctly when run from
inside a build launched through the IDE because stopping the build kills
the CMake that is driving the reload. Fortunately VS >= 10 know how to
reload the whole solution anyway.
The GITUpdateCustom and P4UpdateCustom options take only one command
line with all arguments as a ;-list, not a ;-list of multiple command
lines. Fix the incorrect documentation originally added by commit
v3.1.0-rc1~463^2 (Help: Document ctest dashboard client usage,

882f48e5 Link libraries by full path even in implicit directories
318cd370 Help: Add link target for Find Modules section of cmake-developer.7
1535dcd8 Tests: Teach RunCMake to optionally merge command output to stdout
When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by
full path. However, some projects had problems on platforms where
find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really
wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by
accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link.
We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library
to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by
returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories. This
caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a
full path. We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (...
switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l,
2008-01-31). However, the special case for libraries in implicit link
directories has also proven problematic and confusing.
Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path
even if they are in implicit link directories. Explain in the policy
documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to
this approach.
Prefix test commands with the CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR property
for target executables. This allows test suites to be run on the host
when crosscompiling.
If the CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR variable is defined, and
CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING is TRUE, then use CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR to run
the try_run executables. This prevents the need to populate
TryRunResults.cmake when cross compiling.
Extend sentences in other documentation linking to this manual to
say that it has a list of supported compilers.

Add CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR target property for executables. This is used by
subsequent patches to run exectuables created for the target system when
crosscompiling. The property is initialized by the
CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR variable when defined.
