Cmake is usually fine to update to the latest version, we only have niche 
patches that don't affect standard builds.

You can run:
    % make update-package-cmake

and you should see:

```
NOTE: Please ensure all cmake packages build after updating with:
    make `make show-downstream-deps-cmake` MXE_TARGETS="i686-w64-mingw32.static 
i686-w64-mingw32.shared x86_64-w64-mingw32.static x86_64-w64-mingw32.shared"

NEW      cmake  3.15.4 --> 3.17.3
```

Our patches still apply to 3.17.3 - so if the downstream cmake packages build, 
we can update.

Cheers,

Tony
