Summary:                    The INSTALL target does not copy the pdb files into
any of the target directories (bin or lib). Affects debug installation
Description: 
I have compiled VTK in Debug mode in visual studio. I would like to provide only
the libraries and headers to other users. Normally I would use the INSTALL
target, however, it does not copy the *.pdb files into either the bin or lib
folders. The pdb files are needed by the visual studio debugger.

Is this a bug?

Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Configure VTK to use VS in CMake
2. Compile VTK in DEBUG mode using Visual Studio.
3. Build INSTALL target

In default install directory C:\Programs\VTK there will be folders named "bin"
and "lib". These do not contain the pdb files.
