James Johnston 3bb707f0a1 Help: Improve formatting of variable documentation
Improve formatting, primarily by:

* Adding links to relevant commands, properties, generators, and so on.
* Converting code, symbols, paths, and so on to fixed-width fonts.
* Hard wrapping lines to 80 characters or less.

CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM
------------------------
Generator-specific target platform name specified by user.
Some CMake generators support a target platform name to be given
to the native build system to choose a compiler toolchain.
If the user specifies a platform name (e.g. via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-A``
option) the value will be available in this variable.
The value of this variable should never be modified by project code.
A toolchain file specified by the :variable:`CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE`
variable may initialize ``CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM``. Once a given
build tree has been initialized with a particular value for this
variable, changing the value has undefined behavior.
