PR #1546: CMake: Enable CMP0074 so that GTest_ROOT can be specified

Imported from GitHub PR https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/pull/1546

I am building Abseil with tests enabled and an external GTest build, i.e.
```
-DABSL_BUILD_TESTING=ON
-DABSL_USE_EXTERNAL_GOOGLETEST=ON
-DABSL_FIND_GOOGLETEST=ON
-DGTest_ROOT=/path/to/googletest/1.14.0
```

However, CMake (3.20.2) configuration yielded this result:
```
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthreads - not found
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthread
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthread - found
-- Found Threads: TRUE
CMake Warning (dev) at CMakeLists.txt:150 (find_package):
  Policy CMP0074 is not set: find_package uses <PackageName>_ROOT variables.
  Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0074" for policy details.  Use the cmake_policy
  command to set the policy and suppress this warning.

  CMake variable GTest_ROOT is set to:

    /path/to/googletest/1.14.0

  For compatibility, CMake is ignoring the variable.
This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

This PR sets `CMP0074=NEW` so that the GTest install location can be specified via `GTest_ROOT`.

Merging this change closes #1546
