Upgrade CMake requirement to 3.16
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

In ECM, then all frameworks, we should bump from 3.5 to 3.16.
This has been agreed with the packagers, it just needs execution.
Mind the fact that cmake changes behavior when upgrading the minimum required version, so this needs full testing.

By full testing, you mean change, build locally, run unit tests, then kick it to the CI and see if it builds on other OS's?

Yep. And a clean build (with no cmake cache), just in case.

Ah, yes, I forgot about the "beware of cmake cached vars!", good point.
