Temporarily add a RST formatter to convert builtin documentation to .rst
source files. This will be removed shortly after we use it to convert
documentation.
Teach the RST formatter to:
* Output preformatted blocks as reStructuredText "::" literal blocks.
* Output option lists as bullet lists with option names enclosed in
reStructuredText ``literal`` quoting.
* Output individual documentation objects (commands, variables, etc.)
in separate .rst files organized in directories by type.
Replace references to cmVersion::GetCMakeVersion() in builtin
documentation with the literal placeholder "|release|" that will be
defined as a substitution later.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
Applying patch provided in issue #7797.
Fixes to man-pages:
- Character '-' must be espaced as '\-'
- Surround preformatted text with '.nf' and '.fi' to adjust filling
- Give every page a NAME section for indexing by mandb
- Pass the man page filename without extension to .TH in its header
Also added a title to the HTML header.
- Previously all links started in 'command_' which led to conflicts
and was confusing for non-command items.
- Use a per-section name that is meaningful to humans.
- Fix link id names to be valid HTML.
(http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/), which users can then convert
to other formats.
Tested with meinproc from KDE, which generates HTML pages which look good.

documentation for all modules found in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, which currently
has to be specified via -D, this can later on be improved e.g. by reading a
special (to-be-created) file like CMakeFiles/ModulePath.cmake in the build
tree so that running cmake help in the build tree of a project will always
give you the current module path. (This could actually also help IDEs which
would like to support cmake for projects...)
