Find: find_package prefers variable CMAKE_FIND_USE_REGISTRY
CMake's find control flags should all have a consistent name. To make this happen we are introducing `CMAKE_FIND_USE_REGISTRY` and deprecating `CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY`.

CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY
--------------------------------------
-Skip :ref:`User Package Registry` in :command:`find_package` calls.
+.. deprecated:: 3.16
+
+ Use the :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY` variable instead.
+
+By default this variable is not set. If neither
+:variable:`CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY` nor
+``CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY`` is set, then
+:command:`find_package()` will use the `User Package Registry` unless the
+`NO_CMAKE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY` option is provided.
+
+``CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY`` is ignored if
+:variable:`CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY` is set.
In some cases, for example to locate only system wide installations, it
is not desirable to use the :ref:`User Package Registry` when searching
for packages. If the :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY`
-variable is enabled, all the :command:`find_package` commands will skip
+variable is ``TRUE``, all the :command:`find_package` commands will skip
the :ref:`User Package Registry` as if they were called with the
``NO_CMAKE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY`` argument.
