We should now rely on all ROOT libraries being linked implicitly via other mechanisms, like `find_package(ROOT)`.
Some configuration code branches are unreachable, now that `roottest` has been merged into ROOT. This also applies to the code that finds the Python interpreter and libraries, as Python is unconditionally found as a dependency already in the main `SearchIntalledSoftware.cmake`, even if `pyroot=OFF`. Another example of redundant code was re-setting the compression default. Specifying a separate project name and minimum CMake version is also not necessary anymore.
This has no clear purpose anymore.
