Description
@EdAyers informed me of this in a Zulip private message. Apparently in recent versions of Emscripten, the commands suggested here fail with:
error: use `emcmake` rather then `emconfigure` for cmake projects

Research direction
Open doc/make/index.md at the “Building JS / WASM binaries with Emscripten” section and compare its commands with the reported error from recent Emscripten versions. Update the instructions so the CMake project uses the appropriate command, then verify that the documented commands no longer trigger the reported failure.
