Summary:                    "xcodebuild -target foo install" should do something
sensible
Description: 
xcode users expect to be able to use the 'install' buildaction with their
targets, but cmake's xcode generator makes install a target rather than a
buildaction.

It might make casual users happier if the xcode generator arranged for
   xcodebuild -target foo install
to the same thing as
   xcodebuild -target install

even if it were a bit of a kludge, as it would reduce need to RTFM in the common
case.
