I don't have objections against the idea to relax CMake version
requirement if everything actually works as expected on all platforms we
support.

Regarding maintaining an our own patchset upward an upstream repository.
I think it should follow the same process as we defined for luarocks:
see the comment [1].

So I pushed the patch to the branch `curl-7_71_1-tarantool`. Please,
take it as the long-term branch: no force-pushes and push after review.

When we'll move to CMake for curl submodule building, we'll update the
submodule to the last commit of this branch.

Please, don't mix it with updating to curl-7.71.1 (#4698) and update the
submodule to the tag `curl-7_71_1` within scope of #4698 (not to the
`curl-7_71_1-tarantool` branch). This way the updates will be more
fine-grained, which is good property.
