[CMake] Categorizing test results displayed via CDash

[Chris Hillery]

Check out this article:

http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/11

and read the article in the Kitware Quarterly that is linked to from there
on "CDash subprojects".

It's not nearly as clean and straightforward as it should be, IMHO, but it
does work.
