[Insight-developers] Testing ITK installation components (was: ENH: Enable component-based packaging.)

[Xiaoxiao Liu]

Let move this patch forward first, which will solve slicer's runtime
packaging problem.
Later we need to take a further look at the install rules of some of the
third party libraries
(e.g. kwsys) to make sure the Development-only component package could be
used for building an ITK application.

It would be great to have a nightly dashboard for testing different
components later.
