[CMake] providing host binary and target library cmake-package when cross compiling

[Owen Alanzo Hogarth]

this is not an in source build.

to do matrix vector multiplication matrix module needs to have access to
the vector class.


I'll add the source code for these modules here:

I think the structure should be a little clearer with all that I've
provided.
