Brad King c46125dfac Help: Refine COMPILE_OPTIONS property documentation
Make wording of the directory and target properties more consitent
and complementary.  Specify that the value is a ";-list" with a link
to the cmake-language(7) manual section on lists.

COMPILE_OPTIONS
---------------
List of options to pass to the compiler.
This property holds a :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of options
given so far to the :command:`add_compile_options` command.
This property is used to initialize the :prop_tgt:`COMPILE_OPTIONS` target
property when a target is created, which is used by the generators to set
the options for the compiler.
Contents of ``COMPILE_OPTIONS`` may use "generator expressions" with the
syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual
for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)` manual
for more on defining buildsystem properties.
