After thinking about this more I realized that we may need
to specify packaging properties for files installed by
install(TARGETS) too.  The actual set of destination paths
may not be known at configuration time.  Therefore such
properties would have to be set as part of the install()
command call.

Perhaps instead we should go ahead and create an "INSTALL"
property type.  INSTALL properties meant for CPack can
start in the prefix "CPACK_".
