> We implement our custom find codes to find libraries by {{find_library()}}/{{find_path()}} with {{NO_DEFAULT_PATH}}. So we need to handle {{lib64/}} (on Red Hat) and {{lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/}} (on Debian) paths manually.
> If we use the CMake's standard find features such as {{CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH}} https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.13/variable/CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.html#variable:CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH , we can remove our custom find codes.
> CMake has package specific find path feature by {{<PackageName}_ROOT}} since 3.12. It's equivalent of our {{<PackageName}_HOME}}.

> If called from within a find module loaded by {{find_package(<PackageName>)}}, search prefixes unique to the current package being found. Specifically look in the {{<PackageName>_ROOT}} CMake variable and the {{<PackageName>_ROOT}} environment variable. The package root variables are maintained as a stack so if called from nested find modules, root paths from the parent’s find module will be searched after paths from the current module, i.e. {{<CurrentPackage>_ROOT}}, {{ENV\{<CurrentPackage>_ROOT}}}, {{<ParentPackage>_ROOT}}, {{ENV\{<ParentPackage>_ROOT}}}, etc.
