[CMake] Excluding targets from a solution config in a Visual Studio build

[Petr Kmoch]

Hi Alessio.

There is a target property EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD. If you set this on a
target to true, the target will be removed from "Build Solution."

2.8.11 should introduce a per-config variant of this property,
EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD_<CONFIG>.
