CPack: Deprecate PackageMaker and OSXX11 generators

Brad King requested to merge brad.king/cmake:cpack-deprecate-old-macos-generators into master

Xcode no longer distributes the PackageMaker tools. Add a deprecation warning when the generator is used.

The CPack OSXX11 generator has not had any updates since 2011 except as part of sweeping maintenance changes. It also creates packages with a OSXScriptLauncher binary that has only ppc and i386 architectures which are not supported by Apple anymore. Furthermore, the generator is not even mentioned in our documentation. Add a deprecation warning.

Fixes: #20235 (closed)
