Help: xref variable that cmake_minimum_required() sets
The CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED_VERSION has long been set by
the cmake_minimum_required() command, but the command docs
never mentioned this. Only the variable's own docs stated this but
the variable isn't very discoverable without it being mentioned in
the command's docs as well.
