[CMake] find_program(), how to handle executable suffix in a cross compilation environment?

[Thomas Törnblom]

What is the proper way to handle the case where find_program() needs 
match "program-name" or "program-name.exe" depending on wether the host 
system is running a unix like OS or Windows?

A project I'm looking at uses CMAKE_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX for the target, so 
I assume that can't be used.

A simple solution is to list both variants, but it adds clutter if the 
path contains variables and I'd like to know how others solve this.
