* find_package: Use PackageName_ROOT variables as search prefixesBrad King2018-03-161-0/+8
This feature was originally added by commit v3.9.0-rc1~71^2~2 (find_*: Add a new PackageRoot search path group, 2017-05-03) and documented by commit v3.9.0-rc1~71^2 (find_*: Add docs for PackageRoot search path group, 2017-05-03). However, we had to disable the feature and remove the documentation in commit v3.9.1~2^2 (find_*: Disable the PACKAGE_ROOT search path group for CMake 3.9, 2017-08-08) due to breaking projects that used `PackageName_ROOT` variables themselves. Add policy `CMP0074` to restore the `PackageName_ROOT` variable behavior in a compatible way. Also revise the stack of root paths to store the paths themselves rather than the package names. This way the policy can be considered at the `find_package` call site instead of individual `find_` calls inside a find module. Co-Author: Chuck Atkins <chuck.atkins@kitware.com> Issue: #17144
