Summary:                    Wrong configuration name emitted by generator
expression
Description: 
CMake has issues with the $<CONFIG> and $<CONFIG:name> generator expressions
when one configuration name is a substring of another. The attached reproducer
has Debug, Release and ReleaseInternal as the configuration names. In this case
ReleaseInternal is used instead of Release.

Steps to Reproduce: 
- Generate solution (I placed the CMakeLists/txt file in the /bin folder and
used cmake.exe . to generate the solution)
- Open the generated solution Test.sln
- Open the properties for TestProject -> CMake Rules ->stamp.txt.rule
- Click on Configuration Properties -> Custom Build Tools -> General
- On Configuration select Release
- Inspect the Command Line property, it reads "Printing comment for
ReleaseInternal" instead of "Printing comment for Release"

Additional Information: 
Tested with CMake version cmake-3.4.1-win32-x86
