Summary:                    Add top level directory to component install
Description: 
When CPACK_ARCHIVE_COMPONENT_INSTALL is on, the packages do not contain a top
level directory, unlike with the non component install.  This is true even if
CPACK_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY is enabled.

It would be nice if a top level directory could be added.  This would mirror the
behavior of the non component install and prevent an annoying surprise for
anyone untarring without listing the contents first.

I also think having this top level directory should be the default, since
CPACK_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY=1 is the default for archives.
