For Find modules where `<Modulename>` is not fully uppercase.
`<Modulename>` is case-exact name used in the Find modules filename:
`CMake/Find<Moduleame>.cmake`.
`find_package_handle_standard_args()` sets both `<MODULENAME>_FOUND` and
`<Modulename>_FOUND` when detecting the dependency. Some CMake code
relies on this and 3rd-party code may rely on it too. Make sure to set
the latter variant when detecting the dependency via `pkg-config`, where
we don't call `find_package_handle_standard_args()`.
CMake sets these variable to `TRUE` (not `ON` or `1`). Replicate this
for compatibility.
Closes#16153
Make the Find modules set and return their respective `pkg-config`
module name(s) to the CMake build process, which then adds those
to the `Requires:` list.
Before this patch, `pkg-config` module names were maintainted in two
separate places. After this patch, they are maintained in the Find
modules for dependencies that have one (most do).
Re-align existing modules with this change: msh3, mbedtls, rustls.
These modules return their `pkg-config` module name only when
detected via `pkg-config`.

Extend `INSTALL-CMAKE` document with the list of available options,
a short description and default values.
The list may not be 100% complete.
There are no component boundaries in CMake, so the line is blurry
between curl options, CMake options, CMake Find modules options.
I included certain CMake options that seemed useful, and/or have
dedicated use withing curl's CMake source. But, all CMake built-in
options are usable, as documented upstream in CMake.
The naming of the options has a heritage and the inconsistencies with
it, including a lack of clear namespace. This may be subject to future
updates, also after figuring out which name has special meaning within
CMake and/or CMake projects out of unwritten convention or something
more tangible.
CMake allows to initialize any internal variable via `-D`. This may be
useful to pre-initialize/override feature check results. The list
doesn't contain these, and they remain officially undocumented.
Also:
- make adjustments to keep the spellchecker happy.
- retrofit description changes to the cmake sources.
- stop documenting deprecated `Find*` variables.

Fixes https://github.com/curl/curl/discussions/14885Closes#15388
In Find modules with native pkg-config detection (libgsasl, libidn2,
libssh, libuv, nettle) use the C compiler flags returned by pkg-config.
Also use the library paths, and return the pathless library names.
Also:
- add these library paths to `libcurl.pc`/`curl-config`.
- fix libgsasl detection to use the detected header directory.
FindGSS already did this before this patch.
Fixes#14641Closes#14652
- fix BearSSL warning about name mismatch.
- fix Nettle Find module not found on Linux.
- tidy-up: drop quotes from a package name.
Package names must match case-sensitively to work on all platforms:
- `find_package(<NAME> ...)` in `CMakeLists.txt`.
- `CMake/Find<NAME>.cmake` filenames.
- `find_package_handle_standard_args(<NAME> ...` in Find modules.
- `message(STATUS "Found <NAME> ...` in Find modules.
(to match the message shown by `find_package_handle_standard_args()`)
Closes#14599
If either `NETTLE_INCLUDE_DIR` or `NETTLE_LIBRARY` is set to customize
the `nettle` dependency, skip `pkg-config` and use the CMake-native
detection to honor these custom settings.
Closes#14584
- add `NAMES` where missing.
- document input variables (including deprecated ones.)
- comment cleanups.
- FindWolfSSL: drop stray `QUIET` from `pkg_check_modules()`.
(`QUIET` may be re-added for all modules in the future.)
Closes#14579
- use the same pattern across all Find modules:
- verify if the version header exists before reading it.
- use a single regex per lookup.
- sync regexes between Find modules.
- use generic temporary variable names.
- improve readability.
- make it simpler to transition to new CMake syntax in the future:
```cmake
file(STRINGS "${CARES_INCLUDE_DIR}/ares_version.h" _version_str REGEX "<...>")
unset(_version_str)
set(CARES_VERSION "${CMAKE_MATCH_1}")
```

- fix zstd version detection to be CMake 3.7 compatible.
Required 3.9 before this patch, for the `CMAKE_MATCH_<n>` feature.

Prefer `pkg_check_modules()` over `pkg_search_module()`.
`pkg_check_modules()` logs a line when there is a hit, and also warnings
if a sub-dependency is missing. In `QUIET` mode, both are silent.
The extra info is useful to see if a detection happened via
`pkg-config`.
Keep `pkg_search_module()` in `FindGSS`. We pass two dependencies
there and we want to keep stopping on the first one.
Partially reverts c2889a7b41#14388Closes#14573
Add option to control whether to use `pkg-config` to detect
dependencies. Curl's CMake uses `pkg-config` by default for all targets
except for MSVC without vcpkg.
With the CMake option `-DCURL_USE_PKGCONFIG=ON` you can override it to
use `pkg-config` always.
If `pkg-config` is causing issues, e.g. in cross-builds or other cases,
`-DCURL_USE_PKGCONFIG=OFF` disables all use of `pkg-config`.
Also add it to `curl-config.cmake`. Not yet used, but will be once curl
starts referencing any curl-specific `Find*` module from this public
script.

Before this patch, `pkg-config` was used for `UNIX` builds only (with
a few exceptions like wolfSSL, libssh, gsasl, libuv). This patch extends
`pkg-config` use to all envs except: `MSVC` without vcpkg. Meaning MSVC
with vcpkg will now use it. Also mingw on Windows.
Also apply the new condition to options where `pkg-config` was used
unconditionally (= for all targets). These are:
`-DCURL_USE_WOLFSSL=ON`, `-DCURL_USE_LIBSSH=ON`,
`-DCURL_USE_GSASL=ON` and `-DCURL_USE_LIBUV=ON`
This patch may still cause regressions for cross-builds (e.g. mingw
cross-build from Unix) and potentially other cases. If that happens, we
recommend using some of these methods to explicitly disable `pkg-config`
when using CMake:
- CMake option: `-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=`
(or `-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=nonexistent` or similar)
This is similar to the (curl-specific) `PKG_CONFIG` env for autotools.
- export env: `PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=`
(or `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`, `PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR`,
or the CMake-specific `PKG_CONFIG`)
We may improve control over this in a future patch, also allowing opting
in MSVC (without vcpkg).

- quote string literals.
In the hope it improves syntax-highlighting and readability.
- use lowercase, underscore-prefixed local var names.
As a hint for scope, to help readability.
- prefer `pkg_search_module` (over `pkg_check_modules`).
They are the same, but `pkg_search_module` stops searching
at the first hit.
- more `IN LISTS` in `foreach()`.
- OtherTests.cmake: clear `CMAKE_EXTRA_INCLUDE_FILES` after use.
- add `PROJECT_LABEL` for http/client and unit test targets.
- sync `Find*` module comments and formatting.
- drop a few local variables.
- drop bogus `CARES_LIBRARIES` from comment.
- unquote numeric literal.

- tidy-up comments.
- use lowercase, underscore prefixed names for internal variables.
- use `IN LISTS` and `IN ITEMS` in `foreach()` loops.
- rename variable name `OUTPUT` to a more distinctive one.
- tidy-up `STREQUAL` syntax.
- delete commented code.
- indent/whitespace.
Closes#14197
The oldest cmake supported by curl is v3.7.0, which already has such
guard (using `PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE`) inside `pkg_check_modules()`. The
advantage of leaving that guard to CMake is that it will define/reset
all output variables, while the manual guard doesn't do this and also
leaves for example `NETTLE_FOUND` undefined.
Delete the single use of this guard from the recently added `nettle`
detection, where I included it by accident. Then possibly re-introduce
it universally if we find it useful after more evaluation.

`nettle` is a direct dependency of curl, when building with GnuTLS.
Add a new `Find` module to detect it.
Also:
- GHA/macos: drop `nettle` hack no longer necessary.
- add `nettle` to `libcurl.pc`.
- also add `nettle` to `libcurl.pc` in autotools builds.
