Help: Explain build/install-tree include dirs in more places (#14946)

Browse Source 
Explain how to use $<BUILD_INTERFACE> and $<INSTALL_INTERFACE> directly
in the documentation of the target_include_directories command and
INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES target property.  Otherwise readers need
to notice the link to the cmake-buildsystem(7) manual and find the
example in that to understand the need for these expressions.

Also fix the explanation in cmake-buildsystem(7) to not claim that
relative paths may be used inside a BUILD_INTERFACE expression.

Include directories usage requirements commonly differ between the build-tree

generator expressions can be used to describe separate usage requirements
based on the usage location. Relative paths are allowed within the
``INSTALL_INTERFACE`` expression and are interpreted relative to the

may also get and set the property directly.
Targets may populate this property to publish the include directories
