We probably should just give up 7.1 and say that GCC<=7.3 is unsupported.
There is evidence that GCC 7.4 works.
I have verified that GCC 7.5 is able to build `check-{llvm,clang,clang-tools,lldb,lld,polly,mlir,bolt}`,
but not flang due to at least `flang/Common/enum-class.h` and a `<charconv`> in a unittest.

The next sections in GettingStarted assume you are still in the root
directory llvm-project when using ninja.
Make the `cmake --build` command match it as well.
Note: I am a new cmake user and this confused me.

D144509 [CMake] Bumps minimum version to 3.20.0.
This partly undoes D137724.
This change has been discussed on discourse

Note this does not remove work-arounds for older CMake versions, that
will be done in followup patches.
D150532 [OpenMP] Compile assembly files as ASM, not C
Since CMake 3.20, CMake explicitly passes "-x c" (or equivalent)
when compiling a file which has been set as having the language
C. This behaviour change only takes place if "cmake_minimum_required"
is set to 3.20 or newer, or if the policy CMP0119 is set to new.
Attempting to compile assembly files with "-x c" fails, however
this is workarounded in many cases, as OpenMP overrides this with
"-x assembler-with-cpp", however this is only added for non-Windows
targets.
Thus, after increasing cmake_minimum_required to 3.20, this breaks
compiling the GNU assembly for Windows targets; the GNU assembly is
used for ARM and AArch64 Windows targets when building with Clang.
This patch unbreaks that.

After a lot of discussion in this diff the consensus was that it is really hard to guess the users intention with their LLVM build. Instead of trying to guess if Debug or Release is the correct default option we opted for just not specifying CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE a error.

We are moving away from building the runtimes with LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS,
however the documentation was largely outdated. This commit updates all
the documentation I could find to use LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES instead of
LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS for building runtimes.
Note that in the near future, libcxx, libcxxabi and libunwind will stop
supporting being built with LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS altogether. I don't know
what the plans are for other runtimes like libc, openmp and compiler-rt,
so I didn't make any changes to the documentation that would imply
something for those projects.
Once this lands, I will also cherry-pick this on the release/14.x branch
to make sure that LLVM's documentation is up-to-date and reflects what
we intend to support in the future.

As raised here: https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2021-November/153881.html
Now that VS2022 is on general release, LLVM is expected to build on VS2017, VS2019 and VS2022, which is proving hazardous to maintain due to changes in behaviour including preprocessor and constexpr changes. Plus of the few developers that work with VS, many have already moved to VS2019/22.
This patch proposes to raise the minimum supported version to VS2019 (16.x) - I've made the hard limit 16.0 or later, with the soft limit VS2019 16.7 - older versions of VS2019 are "allowed" (at your own risk) via the LLVM_FORCE_USE_OLD_TOOLCHAIN cmake flag.
