Summary0014555: Add ability to INSTALL(CODE|SCRIPT ...) that is always executed at install time regardless of component being installed.
DescriptionAt the moment, the INSTALL(CODE|SCRIPT ...) command always generates install-time code that wraps the script or code passed to the command in an "if" statement that only executes the code if the selected (or CMAKE_INSTALL_DEFAULT_COMPONENT_NAME if none selected) component is currently being installed. I'd like to be able to add arbitrary code to the install-time script without this check.
 
Perhaps a new flag "ALWAYS_EXECUTE" (ok - that's lame) or something like that could be added to the INSTALL(CODE|SCRIPT ...) command?
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationI'm (very slowly) developing a set of scripts that will allow me to specify dependencies (a'la augmented-FIND_PACKAGE), but allow them to be managed in an independent and consistent manner (a'la maven/ivy). It's all very brittle and basic ATM... I'm currently working on tying the information gathered from this step together with information gathered from a slightly augmented "GetPrerequisites" executed at install time to easily (?) build install packages. Tying them together requires that some information from the augmented FIND_PACKAGE step be placed into the install-time script and executed regardless of component being installed.
