https://github.com/TheoW03 created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/121083
I updated the CMake sample file to instead use
```cmake
add_llvm_executable(simple-tool tool.cpp)
```
instead of
```cmake
# Now build our tools
add_executable(simple-tool tool.cpp)
# Find the libraries that correspond to the LLVM components
# that we wish to use
llvm_map_components_to_libnames(llvm_libs support core irreader)
# Link against LLVM libraries
target_link_libraries(simple-tool ${llvm_libs})
```
which according to multiple sources. and the next page of the docs is out of date

The ``find_package(...)`` directive when used in CONFIG mode (as in the above
example) will look for the ``LLVMConfig.cmake`` file in various locations (see
