[CMake] add_dependencies has a wrong order?

[Michael Wild]

I think you misunderstand add_dependencies. The command adds a  
dependency of dlib_httpclient on dlib, i.e. dlib_httplclient DEPENDS  
ON dlib. It has nothing to do with the order the libraries appear on  
the command line when you link ${PROJECT_NAME}.
