[CMake] Add configuration support to include_directories()

[Robert Dailey]

I apologize, but I don't see how this could possibly work for visual studio
output. It seems like you'd have 1 set of visual studio projects for debug
and one set for release. You don't know if the build type is debug or
release in CMake because the configuration is "dynamically chosen", which
basically means the user chooses the configuration *after* the CMake targets
have been generated.

Either I'm misunderstanding something or this won't work. I'll test it out
later on to see for myself, I'm just expressing my lack of confidence in
this. I do apologize if I have not appropriately explained the problem.

Thanks for your help! I'll get back with you on the results of this.
