Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7 has reached its end of life in 2024. This means we can bump the minimum required version to 3.11 which is provided in RHEL 8 [1]. We assume that other systems either have CMake 3.11 or newer available, or have a way to install a sufficently new CMake versions. Bumping the minimum version removes some deprecation warning (about support for older CMake versions being dropped), and also ensures compatibility with CMake 4.0 which has dropped support for CMake <3.5 and was rolled out to GitHub runners recently.
