Replaced most manual `const_iterator`-based loops and some
reverse-iterator loops with range loops.

Fixes: #18858

In all cases the return value is converted to std::string anyway.

Also remove unnecessary `c_str()` calls in arguments to
`GetRequiredDefinition`.

* Change some functions to take `std::string` instead of
  `const char*` in the following classes: `cmMakeFile`, `cmake`,
  `cmCoreTryCompile`, `cmSystemTools`,  `cmState`, `cmLocalGenerator`
  and a few others.
* Greatly reduce using of `const char*` overloads for
  `cmSystemTools::MakeDirectory` and `cmSystemTools::RelativePath`.
* Remove many redundant `c_str()` conversions throughout the code.

- Use `std::move` while inserting temporary results into vectors.
- Change `push_back` to `emplace_back` where appropriate.

Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool.  Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience.  Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.

Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices.  It also references version control
history for more precise information.  Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.

Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing".  The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.

Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically.  Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files.  Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.

Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

Match names used in CMake code.

Match the names used in cmake code.

By now, it is only an expensive copy.

Use the clang RemoveCStrCalls tool to automatically migrate the
code. This was only run on linux, so does not have any positive or
negative effect on other platforms.

Our Git commit hooks disallow modification or addition of lines with
trailing whitespace.  Wipe out all remnants of trailing whitespace
everywhere except third-party code.

Run the following shell code:

git ls-files -z -- \
 bootstrap doxygen.config '*.readme' \
 '*.c' '*.cmake' '*.cpp' '*.cxx' \
 '*.el' '*.f' '*.f90' '*.h' '*.in' '*.in.l' '*.java' \
 '*.mm' '*.pike' '*.py' '*.txt' '*.vim' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/(kwsys|CursesDialog/form)/)' |
egrep -z -v '^(Modules/CPack\..*\.in)' |
xargs -0 sed -i 's/ \+$//'

This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License.  We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked.  We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.

ENH: add return and break support to cmake, also change basic command invocation signature to be able to return extra informaiton via the cmExecutionStatus class

CMake-SourceFile2-bp and CMake-SourceFile2-b-mp1 to trunk.  This
commit is surrounded by tags CMake-SourceFile2-b-mp1-pre and
CMake-SourceFile2-b-mp1-post on the trunk.

The changes re-implement cmSourceFile and the use of it to allow
instances to be created much earlier.  The use of cmSourceFileLocation
allows locating a source file referenced by a user to be much simpler
and more robust.  The two SetName methods are no longer needed so some
duplicate code has been removed.  The strange "SourceName" stuff is
gone.  Code that created cmSourceFile instances on the stack and then
sent them to cmMakefile::AddSource has been simplified and converted
to getting cmSourceFile instances from cmMakefile.  The CPluginAPI has
preserved the old API through a compatibility interface.

Source lists are gone.  Targets now get real instances of cmSourceFile
right away instead of storing a list of strings until the final pass.

TraceVSDependencies has been re-written to avoid the use of
SourceName.  It is now called TraceDependencies since it is not just
for VS.  It is now implemented with a helper object which makes the
code simpler.

ENH: Made cmSourceFile::GetDepends return reference to const so dependencies can be added only by an access method in cmSourceFile.

ENH: Updated implementation of custom commands.  Multiple command lines are now supported effectively allowing entire scripts to be written.  Also removed extra variable expansions and cleaned up passing of commands through to the generators.  The command and individual arguments are now kept separate all the way until the generator writes them out.  This cleans up alot of escaping issues.

ENH: Allow qt ui files being it the binary dir. Bug #110 - QT_WRAP_UI problem on out-of-source builds

ENH: Added reference to Copyright.txt.  Removed old reference to ITK copyright.  Changed program name to CMake instead of Insight in source file header.  Also removed tabs.

Upgrade all the QT functionality to use the new FindXXX.cmake format
Add a module for AVIFile.

removed all source lists from the system and made them vectors. Also appended _CMAKE_PATH to the end of the automatic cache entries for executables and libraries. Odds of all these changes working are slim but cmake builds and passes all its tests. VTK40 starts building
