[CMake] Beginning to compiling CMake file

[Volker Enderlein]

If you go to https://github.com/imageworks/OpenShadingLanguage

i.e. the top level directory of the github project, you'll se an 
appveyor.yml file entry. That is the information for the continuous 
integration tool (CI, AppVeyor) they are using to build the project from 
scratch. If you look into it, you'll find a before_build and a 
build_script section. Both contain calls to CMake either to build the 
dependencies (before_build) or the project itself (build_script). This 
is a starting point for you how to formulate your CMake call.

Cheers Volker
