[GNC-dev] recent CMake warnings and Ubuntu LTS support

[Geert Janssens]

Heh, we usually look at Ubuntu LTS to find the oldest software versions to support. Didn't 
realize our own code server is even older.

We could also set the baseline to 3.14.5. It solves the issue for which I chose to upgrade to 
3.16 equally well.

Regards,

Geert
