Brad King a9f8c50aa2 Help: Clarify add_compile_options documentation (#15225)
Explain that it affects only targets added after the call.  Fix the link
to the COMPILE_OPTIONS directory propert documentation.  Update the
latter to explain that it is used to initialize the corresponding target
property when a target is created.

COMPILE_OPTIONS
---------------
List of options to pass to the compiler.
This property specifies the list of options given so far to the
:command:`add_compile_options` command.
This property is used to initialize the :prop_tgt:`COMPILE_OPTIONS` target
property when a target is created, which is used by the generators to set
the options for the compiler.
Contents of ``COMPILE_OPTIONS`` may use "generator expressions" with the
syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual
for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)` manual
for more on defining buildsystem properties.
