MongoDB C++11 Driver r3.9.0

Added

• The C++ driver container image is now available on Docker hub.
• Document availability of on vcpkg and Conan.
• Add CMake option MONGOCXX_OVERRIDE_DEFAULT_INSTALL_PREFIX (default is TRUE
  for backwards-compatibility). If enabled, CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX defaults to the build directory.
• Add API to manage Atlas Search Indexes.
• Automatically download C driver dependency if not provided.
• Add VERSIONINFO resource to bsoncxx.dll and mongocxx.dll.

Changed

• Do not build tests as part of all target. Configure with BUILD_TESTING=ON to build tests.
• Bump minimum required CMake version to 3.15 to support the FetchContent module and for consistency with the C Driver.
• Improve handling of downloaded (non-system) mnmlstc/core as the polyfill library.
  • Use FetchContent instead of ExternalProject to download and build the library.
  • Do not patch include directives in mnmlstc/core headers.
• Bump minimum C Driver version to 1.25.0.

Fixed

• Explicitly document that throwing an exception from an APM callback is undefined behavior.
• Do not prematurely install mnmlstc/core headers during the CMake build step.
• Require a C Driver CMake package is found via find_dependency() for all installed CXX Driver package configurations.

Removed

• Remove support for exported targets from the CMake project build tree.
• Drop support for the following operating systems:
  • macOS 10.14 and 10.15
  • Ubuntu 14.04
