[CMake] Clearing all cmake files

If you used an out of source build then you can simply delete the  
build directory. If you did NOT use an out-of-source build then you  
are going to have to hand pick through your source directories to find  
everything that does not belong.

With that said CMakeCache.txt is the first obvious choice for  
deletion. Next comes CMakeFiles and CMakeTemp. Not sure about anything  
else.

Also, CMakeLists.txt is the _project_ file. Deleting this file is the  
same as deleting the .sln on windows, the xcode project file on OS X  
or the main Makefile on Linux/Unix. Are you sure you really want to  
remove CMakeLists.txt file?
