[CMake] CMake single-configuration makefiles

[Robert Dailey]

I understand that currently Makefiles generated by CMake are
single-configuration by-design. In other words, you can't issue a "debug"
or "release" command to make, you have to regenerate for a different
configuration.

Can someone explain the reason for this design? Are there any plans to
change it? I'm new to Makefiles so I'm curious to learn as much as possible
about it.

Thanks.
