[CMake] Fixed ProjectGUID

[Dr. Sören Textor]

Taking a look at the CMakeCache.txt offers the missing
      ${target_name}_GUID_CMAKE
variable.

Thus
   set_property(CACHE ${target_name}_GUID_CMAKE PROPERTY VALUE ${MY_GUID} )
seems to work.

But how do I get the actual GUID set by CMake? This one was stored in CMakeCache.txt before. But right know I cannot find the GUID from a generated project file in any ccmake chache file.
How do I gain the GUID created by CMake. In my project I just store the new GUIDs created by CMake in a file. Next time I build the project file I'm looking if a GUID  was already generated for that project an will use that one.

Best regards,
SirAnn
