[CMake] Tweak CMake project to include non-buildable files in the CodeBlocks project file

[Dario Oliveri]

It is very simple for each of the files you want to include in the build (I
use txt example so that you know it can work for arbitrary types):

---
set_source_files_properties( comment.txt PROPERTIES HEADER_FILE_ONLY true)
---
then you can include that file in the build to let it shows up in the IDE
file

---
#example when adding a static library (works the same also for executables)
add_library( ${arg1} STATIC
    ${sourcefiles}   #files you need to REALLY BUILD
    comment.txt    #this file would be added, but not builded
  )
