B. Scott Michel 487f243c28 CMake: Bump project version to 4.1.0
- Bump SIMH_VERSION_MINOR in CMakeLists.txt. This propagates down
  through the rest of the CMake infrastructure.

- README-CMake.md, cmake/{GitHub-release.md,cmake-builder.sh}: Update
  documentation. (Prettiness.)

- vcpkg.json: Update simh version-string. (Consistency.)

NOTE: Github CI/CD: There has to be an automated way to update version
numbers; researching.

# SIMH pre-built binaries
Welcome to SIMH's pre-built binaries!
- `.deb`: Debian packages for Linux. To install:
```
$ sudo dpkg -i <package file>
```
- `.zip`: ZIP-ed executable archive. Use your favorite or appropriate ZIP
software to unzip the archive. The `simh-<version>/bin` subdirectory is the
location of the simulators.
- `.exe`: Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS)-created Windows installer.
NOTE: The executble is not code-signed. DO NOT DOUBLE CLICK ON THE EXECUTABLE
TO INSTALL. If you do, you are likely to get a Windows Defender popup box that
will prevent you from installing SIMH. Instead, use a CMD or PowerShell
command window and execute the `.exe` from the command line prompt. For
example, to install `simh-4.1.0-win32-native.exe`:
```
## PowerShell:
PS> .\simh-4.1.0-win32-native
## CMD:
> .\simh-4.1.0-win32-native
```
- `.msi`: WiX toolkit-created Windows MSI installer.
These MSI files are not code-signed. DO NOT DOUBLE CLICK ON THE EXECUTABLE TO
INSTALL. If you do, you are likely to get a Windows Defender popup box that
will prevent you from installing SIMH. Instead, use a CMD or PowerShell command
window to manually invoke `msiexec` to install SIMH. From either a PowerShell
or CMD command window:
```
> msiexec /qf /i simh-4.1.0-win32-native.msi
```
