Summary:                    passing -D to ccmake prevents editing that value
Description: 
Values passed as e.g. -D arguments to ccmake cannot be edited in ccmake; they
are reset to the value on the command line when configuring the project.

This is caused by ccmake naïvely passing these arguments along to cmake when it
is invoked, such that they are reset to the value given on the command line and
not the value specified in ccmake.

Steps to Reproduce: 
- ccmake -DFOO=123
- change FOO to something else
- configure
- FOO is reset to 123
