Target names reserved by one or more CMake generators are not allowed.

+Among others these include "all", "clean", "help", and "install".

+Target names associated with optional features, such as "test" and "package",
+may also be reserved. CMake 3.10 and below always reserve them. CMake 3.11
+and above reserve them only when the corresponding feature is enabled
+(e.g. by including the :module:`CTest` or :module:`CPack` modules).
The OLD behavior for this policy is to allow creating targets with
reserved names or which do not match the validity pattern.
