Sylvain Joubert bbffaa0e6c Configure some CMake-provided targets with USES_TERMINAL (#14915)
This will make them use the 'console' pool with the Ninja generator.
Impacted targets are:
- Built-in targets: install, install/local, install/strip, tests,
  package, package_source, rebuild_cache
- Targets provided by the CTestTargets module: Nightly, Continuous,
  Experimental,
  and all their variants (*Start, *Configure, ...)

console-pool
------------
* The :command:`add_custom_command` and :command:`add_custom_target`
commands learned a new ``USES_TERMINAL`` option to request that
the command be given direct access to the terminal if possible.
The :generator:`Ninja` generator will places such commands in the
``console`` pool. Build targets provided by CMake that are meant
for individual interactive use, such as ``install``, are now
placed in this pool.
