Summary:                    Add support WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS for
executable exports lib
Description: 
For access from DLL to mother programm we need create .lib by EXPORTS flag but
without /DEF we can't export symbols.

This code must work:
add_executable(prog1 blalba)
set_target_properties(prog1 PROPERTIES ENABLE_EXPORTS 1)
set_target_properties(prog1 PROPERTIES WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS 1)

Now I use ugly perl script for gen .def file.

Thanks. 
PS for .dll's WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS worked correct.
