[CMake] targetname_BINARY_DIR?

[David Cole]

There is nothing like that... Unless the target has had its directory
property *set* before you make the get_property call.

Why do you need this? What's your use case where the name of a target is
known, but the name of its containing project is unknown (presumably)...?
