[CMake] Adding Cmake version in online documentation

Hi,

This is a feature proposal for the documentation. Cmake is making use of 
cmake_minimum_required() command, that is very useful. Unfortunately it 
is very hard to identify commands that will work without browsing all 
version of cmake documentation for a given command.

That said, adding a "since version" number for a feature/command would 
be great, like cplusplus.com does (example here: 
http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/unordered_map/unordered_map/?kw=unordered_map)

For instance, the command

list(FILTER ...)

has been introduced in Cmake 3.6. Why not adding

list(FILTER ...) (since 3.6)

?
