[CMake] Create shortcuts in "application folder" for OS-X with CPack

[James Bigler]

I don't think there is anything specific in packagemaker.  By the way, CPack
uses the command line version of packagemaker that has different options
than the GUI version - see the man page.

You can do a post install script to set up the link, though.  Make sure you
use a full path to the script in your tree when specifying the scripts:
${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/installscripts/postinstall.sh.
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackPackageGenerators#PackageMaker_.28OSX_only.29

Information on the three different scripts (when they execute and what the
arguments stand for) can be found here:

Look down for the section titled "What about scripts?"
