ENH: Convert CMAKE_LINK_OLD_PATHS to policy CMP0003.

  - Policy is WARN by default so projects will build
    as they did in 2.4 without user intervention
  - Remove CMAKE_LINK_OLD_PATHS variable since it was
    never in a release and the policy supercedes it
  - Report target creation backtrace in warning message
    since policy should be set by that point
