Summary:                    target_compile_definitions empty $<CONFIGURATION>
generator
Description: 
I came across weird behaviour in the 2.8.11rc1. 

target_compile_definitions(test PUBLIC $<$<CONFIG:Debug>:TEST_DEBUG>
$<CONFIG:Debug> $<CONFIGURATION>)

Only adds "0" to the compile definitions in every Visual Studio configuration,
including "Debug", leading me to believe that $<CONFIGURATION> is not set
correctly. 

Steps to Reproduce: 
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.11)
project(test)

file(WRITE test.cpp "#include <stdio.h>")

add_library(test test.cpp)

target_compile_definitions(test PUBLIC $<$<CONFIG:Debug>:TEST_DEBUG>
$<CONFIG:Debug> $<CONFIGURATION>)
