Rebase to hopefully fix pre-merge CI

Seems like a reasonable refactoring to me.

cmake/Modules/ExtendInstallPath.cmake
1 ↗(On Diff #396335)

s/of/or/?

4 ↗(On Diff #396335)

It seems odd to me to have the second argument be the return value. I'd prefer having it as the first argument and passing prefix_var as a value, rather than as a variable name.

Since you've named it 'extend_install_path' ten perhaps 'prefix_var' should be 'install_path'?

lastly, the documentation leave something to be desired. I would say something like:
"Extend the path in prefix_var with the relative path in current_segment, returning the result in joined_path. If current_segment is an absolute path then just return it and issue a warning.
Note that the code returns a relative path (avoiding introducing leading slashes) if the prefix_var is empty."
