[ITK] No GDCMConfig.cmake

[Matt McCormick]

Hi Nigel,

Yes, ITK's internal GDCM is not intended to be used by other libraries.

To have a shared version of GDCM, build GDCM outside of ITK, perhaps
using the MITK build of GDCM, then point ITK to this version of GDCM
by setting ITK_USE_SYSTEM_GDCM to ON, and pointing CMake to your GDCM
build.

HTH,
Matt
