[CMake] ExternalProject and Visual Studio

[David Cole]

Don't do this on line 175: (just delete the line)
BUILD_COMMAND ${CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL}

Instead, just let cmake compute the BUILD_COMMAND for you...

The default build command for ExternalProject_Add for cmake-built projects
is something like:
cmake --build . --config Release


HTH,
David
