      Summary
      Update Git-based documentation to reflect the compilers, tools and language standard versions that WiredTiger and its associated test code and utilities requires.

      Wiki-based documentation will be updated separately as required (ie without a ticket).

      Motivation

      • Does this affect any team outside of WT?
        Not directly, but it will make it easier for other teams to build and use WiredTiger in the future.
      • Is this issue urgent?
        Not urgent.

      Acceptance Criteria (Definition of Done)

      This ticket will be done when all documentation updates (including online documentation and readme.md files) have been updated.

      Note: no architecture guide changes are required for this ticket.

      Changes required:

      • build-posix.dox - update text to explain the required language standard and tool versions.
      • cmake/README.md - update text to explain the required language standard and tool versions.
      • check and update any other README.md files as required.
