The makefile is only used when called by the cmMessageCommand, so inline
the use of it there. It otherwise creates an undesirable dependency on
cmMakefile for issuing messages in the cmake instance, a violation of
the Interface Segregation Principle.

This also makes it more explicit that the variable definitions only
affect the message() command. If an AUTHOR_WARNING is issued for any
other reason, it is not affected. To affect that, it is necessary to
set the cache variable instead of the regular variable.
This is an unfortunate interface quirk, but one which can't be fixed
easily now.
Expand the -W set of cmake options to include support for the -Werror
and -Wno-error format, which is used to control upgrading and
downgrading warning and error messages. Implement support for these new
formats for the dev and deprecated message types.
Add tests and updated documentation for new options.
Explicitly enable deprecated warnings by default, via the
cmake::GetSuppressDeprecatedWarnings method, which signals
suppression is turned off unless the CMake variables are set
as required.
Add tests and update the documentation for the new
functionality.
Explicitly enable author warnings by default, via the
cmake::GetSuppressDevWarnings method, which signals suppression
is turned off unless the CMake variables are set as required.
Add test cases for author and deprecated messages displayed by
default.
Make the message suppression more consistent, by adding a check
for the message related CMake variables in cmake::IssueMessage,
which allows callers of IssueMessage other than the message
command to behave as expected. Also added a check for
CMAKE_SUPPRESS_DEVELOPER_WARNINGS in the message command to
mirror the deprecated message type behaviour.
Added a 'force' flag to the cmake::IssueMessage method, to
make the message suppression consistent, when setting the
message related CMake variables directly in a CMake file.
Expand message command tests to cover the AUTHOR_WARNING message
type as well.
By default, the message is not issued. If CMAKE_ERROR_DEPRECATED
is on, the message is fatal. If CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED is on, the
message is a warning.
