Subject: Kate: make it possible to force a mode for the "files" entry

By default, kate will try to autodetect whether the project is
a svn or git checkout or not.
In case this does not give a satisfying result, the user can now
set CMAKE_KATE_FILES_MODE to the mode he wants.

+CMAKE_KATE_FILES_MODE
+---------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 3.27
+
+This cache variable is used by the Kate project generator and controls
+to what mode the ``files`` entry in the project file will be set.  See
+:manual:`cmake-generators(7)`.
+
+Possible values are ``AUTO``, ``SVN``, ``GIT`` and ``LIST``.
+
+When set to ``LIST``, CMake will put the list of source files known to CMake
+in the project file.
+When set to ``SVN``, CMake will put ``svn`` into the project file so that Kate
+will use svn to retrieve the list of files in the project.
+When set to ``GIT``, CMake will put ``git`` into the project file so that Kate
+will use git to retrieve the list of files in the project.
+When unset or set to ``AUTO``, CMake will try to detect whether the
+source directory is part of a git or svn checkout or not, and put the
+respective entry into the project file.
