Help: Fix incorrect CMAKE_PROJECT_xxx docs
The docs for CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME and CMAKE_PROJECT_DESCRIPTION were erroneously documenting the behavior of PROJECT_NAME and PROJECT_DESCRIPTION respectively. Fix these and update the project() docs to also mention CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME and CMAKE_PROJECT_DESCRIPTION. Fixes: #17815
