[CMake] Setting environment before running a test

[David Cole]

This feature is now implemented in CVS CMake.
See notes in bug tracker for more info:
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=7885

Proper syntax is demonstrated in CMake/Tests/Environment/CMakeLists.txt, as
in:

set_tests_properties(Environment1 EchoEnvironment1 PROPERTIES
  ENVIRONMENT "CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_TEST_VAR=Happy Thanksgiving!"
  PASS_REGULAR_EXPRESSION "CMAKE_ENV.*Happy Thanksgiving"
)


Have a good one,
David
