[CMake] newline: for all platforms

[Ryan Pavlik]

In most cases, \n works everywhere for compilation - you just can't use
windows notepad to edit files like that.  Since only Windows (well, and
pre-OS X mac) uses something other than \n as far as I know, you could also
just do
if(WIN32)

and set it yourself if it really does matter in your situation.
