Help: Improve formatting of variable documentation
Improve formatting, primarily by: * Adding links to relevant commands, properties, generators, and so on. * Converting code, symbols, paths, and so on to fixed-width fonts. * Hard wrapping lines to 80 characters or less.

CMake uses these options to set the link type for libraries whose full
