[CMake] How to get Qt shared libraries to install with cmake 2.8.0

[Clinton Stimpson]

You can see an example here of bundling up Qt with an application:
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/BundleUtilitiesExample
Note: before CMake 2.8, it only worked on Mac OS X.  In CMake 2.8, it 
works on Windows and Linux too.
And it can be used for any 3rd party library besides just Qt, or any 
library you don't add an install() for.
