This PR fixes the compilation of the GLEW port with CMake 4.0, which removed compatibility with versions of CMake older than version 3.5 (see https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v4.0/release/4.0.html#deprecated-and-removed-features). I have tested on CMake 4.0.0 RC2 that the build process no longer fails with the proposed changes.
While this issue was fixed in the upstream repo some time ago, vcpkg uses the sources of the last release, which has been created a few years ago.
portfile.cmake
makes this statement why using the code from the main branch of the upstream repo is not directly possible:... so I think the solution proposed by this PR using a patch is the best solution for now.
./vcpkg x-add-version --all
and committing the result.
