The documentation of former versions is available in the history (e.g.
by checking out the appropriate git tags), so there is no need to keep
them in parallel to the current documentation.

Use `EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL` in `add_subdirectory` to prevent `make install` from including lots of headers from gtest/gmock.
```
add_subdirectory(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/googletest-src
${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/googletest-build
EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL)
```
The document itself uses lambdas later, all the scaffolding to
work around lack of lambdas should be considered for removal, but
that is much larger an effort than I can commit to.
Add a new RAII MemoryIsNotDeallocated class that excludes memory allocations from Microsoft’s debug CRT leak detection report.
We use this RAII class to silence 2 false positive leaks that are caused by memory allocations that are intentionally never deallocated.
*Background*
The MS debug CRT has a lightweight memory leak detection mechanism that can only detect if a memory allocation is missing a matching deallocation.
Consequently, it will report a false positive leak for memory that’s intentionally never deallocated. For example, memory that’s reachable for the entire lifetime of a app.
Note the MS debug CRT is always tracking memory allocations but the final memory leak report is disabled by default. As you can’t avoid paying for its cost, you may as well use it.
The memory leak report can be enabled by calling the following function
#ifdef _MSC_VER
_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CRTDBG_REPORT_FLAG) | _CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF);
#endif // _MSC_VER
anywhere before exiting main.
For example, the following are the false positive leaks reported before this change;
Detected memory leaks!

As you can see from above it’s not easy to identify the above are false positives. Consequently, if false positive leaks are not fixed or silenced, then it becomes impractical to identify real memory leaks.
Re-use existing background color for Widows' console window.
This fixes a problem where the background color for ColoredPrintf would be BLACK even if the user's console is using a different BG color.
The mechanics of suppressing debugger trapping and Windows Error Reporting for the crashed child process in a death test are currently guarded under the `GTEST_HAS_SEH` macro. This seems unnecessary, as the logic does not call any APIs related to Structured Error Handling.
Replace the guarding macro with the more permissive `GTEST_OS_WINDOWS`, so that Windows toolchains without SEH support (e.g. MinGW) can benefit from it.
Fixes: #1116
