…upported MX configurations from Visual Studio projects.
CMake 2.8.5 added the GNUInstallDirs module, which provides various
variables following the CMAKE_INSTALL_*DIR pattern to allow users a more
flexible installation setup and to provide sensible defaults while
respecting distribution specific install locations like lib64 for RPM
based linux distributions or debian multiarch tuples.

Failure caused by `llvm-rc` failing on non-ASCII code point for
copyright symbol.
Resolves #349 (I think)
I think this code tried to check for a zero terminated null byte, but it
actually just checked if the address of the corresponding character is
non-zero, which is always true. These broken checks are simply dropped
because the following code assumes that the string `b` doesn't include a
null byte and all call sites already pass the length of the string
without counting the null byte.

This bug was found by gcc 12.1 which emits a warning on this kind of
code. Now glew builds without any warnings using gcc 12.1. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102103 for the
corresponding issue.

Commit 2b50f4a ("CMake: Prefer GLVND if available") changed the cmake
policy CMP0072 to `NEW` in order to make the FindOpenGL module prefer the
GLVND libraries (libOpenGL and libGLX) over the legacy GL library (libGL).

The help of the CMP0072 policy states:

> CMP0072
> -------
>
> .. versionadded:: 3.11
>
> ``FindOpenGL`` prefers GLVND by default when available.
>
> The ``FindOpenGL`` module provides an ``OpenGL::GL`` target and an
> ``OPENGL_LIBRARIES`` variable for projects to use for legacy GL interfaces.
> When both a legacy GL library (e.g. ``libGL.so``) and GLVND libraries
> for OpenGL and GLX (e.g. ``libOpenGL.so`` and ``libGLX.so``) are available,
> the module must choose between them.  It documents an ``OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE``
> variable that can be used to specify an explicit preference.  When no such
> preference is set, the module must choose a default preference.
>
> CMake 3.11 and above prefer to choose GLVND libraries.  This policy provides
> compatibility with projects that expect the legacy GL library to be used.
>
> The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to set ``OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE`` to
> ``LEGACY``.  The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to set
> ``OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE`` to ``GLVND``.
>
> This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.11.  CMake version
> 3.23.0 warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.
> Use the ``cmake_policy()`` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW``
> explicitly.
>
> .. note::
>   The ``OLD`` behavior of a policy is
>   ``deprecated by definition``
>   and may be removed in a future version of CMake.

The changes from the mentioned commit combined with the new behaviour of
the FindOpenGL module resulted in the glew library being linked against
`libOpenGL` instead of `libGL`, but not `libGLX`. Since `libOpenGL`
doesn't link against GLX compared to `libGL` the linker errors above
surfaced. Fix this by explicitly linking against libGLX if GLEW_X11 is
enabled
Instead of just removing periods and digits from SYSTEM, remove periods
and digits and everything after any digits. This handles unusual system
identifiers like powerpc-apple-darwin10.0.0d2.

I wasn't sure if periods can appear anywhere other than in the release
number so I retained the previous behavior of removing all periods
regardless where they are.
