The above commits are now in `master`.  Please rebase the rest of
the topic.

Please update Help/manual/cmake.1.rst to document the
`-E capabilities` option.  Also please add a case to
Tests/RunCMake/CommandLine/RunCMakeTest.cmake to at least
run `cmake -E capabilities` as a smoke test.

Is there a JSON convention for documenting schema?  We will need
to be able to document the capabilities output format as well as
the protocol formats of cmake server mode.

Thanks,
