[CMake] OS X framework headers with capital letters

Not to be picky, but the issue of case sensitivity ignores the original
question.

If it helps someone think about the issue better, change:

set(FOO_HEADER_FILES "foo.h;bar.h;bat.h;Foo.h;Foo.hpp")

to

set(FOO_HEADER_FILES "bar.h;bat.h;Foo.h;Foo.hpp")


Thanks,

Steve
