CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is irrelevant for multi-config generators, such as
Xcode or MSVC. Either select you desired build type in the IDE, or if
you are building using the command-line use the appropriate switches
(e.g. for "cmake --build" use the --config flag, for cmakexbuild or
xcodebuild use the -configuration flag, for MSBuild use
/p:Configuration=Debug).
