   Debian 10 reached EOL LTS yesterday, on 2024-06-30.

   There no longer seem to be compelling reasons to maintain support for CMake 3.13.

   The suggested minimum required version, CMake 3.16, is shipped with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, which is supported until April 2025.

   Debian 11 ships with CMake 3.18 (3.25 in backports). In other major distros and package managers, CMake versions are not older.

   utACK 730f9e1f43947a3e89dc1bbab7089e0f0b09810a seems reasonable to get rid of compatibility code

   Fixed the “release” CI job.

   ACK 9420eece24117fc55540ab6d8bbfaca6b834b761 - If the only significant change is for some MSVC compat code, this doesn’t seem super compelling, but seems ok either way.
