update cmake version being checked to one that works (was: Issue Installing NCEPLIBS-ip)

[deadpickle]

I'm trying to install this to get to grib2io-interp. I'm on Ubuntu 20.4 and have installed libblas-dev and liblapack-dev. Here are the errors I get:

[deadpickle]

The issue was caused by the wrong version of cmake

[edwardhartnett]

OK, but we check for cmake version, so is our check incorrect?

What was the version of cmake which failed?

[deadpickle]

I have 3.16.3 installed on the system but had to compile 3.31.0 separately. The check is for 3.15 in your CMakeLists.txt so that would pass but the build produced the above errors.

[AlexanderRichert-NOAA]

According to the docs, the LAPACK::LAPACK target was added in CMake 3.18, so I'll start my testing there...

[edwardhartnett]

OK, we don't have to have the absolutely earliest version that works, but it seems like the one we have now is not correct, so just find some later version that is correct and use that.
