The package root variables are maintained as a stack, so if called from
nested find modules or config packages, root paths from the parent's find
module or config package will be searched after paths from the current
module or package. In other words, the search order would be
``<CurrentPackage>_ROOT``, ``ENV{<CurrentPackage>_ROOT}``,
``<ParentPackage>_ROOT``, ``ENV{<ParentPackage>_ROOT}``, etc.
This can be skipped if ``NO_PACKAGE_ROOT_PATH`` is passed or by setting
the :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_ROOT_PATH` to ``FALSE``.
