CMake 3.20 in Ubuntu 18.04 (reversible way)

Motivatation

  • modern CMake is required for building a lot of new software
  • CMake is dependency for many packages (e.g. ROS related)
  • we don't want to remove CMake (which would remove packages that depend on it)
  • we want safe procedure to update CMake that can be reversed easily
