[Gmsh] CMakeLists.txt request

[David Bernstein]

Ok thanks.  On osx this doesn't seem to work as gmsh appears to put the library and include files in unusual places (i.e., not in /usr/local/include or /usr/opt/local/include etc.).

In any case, it would be nice if the Gmsh source came with a FindGmsh.cmake file so that users could use find_package.  There are a few versions of this file floating around the web that people have written for their projects so some examples are available to build on.

That way I can use find_package(Gmsh) in my project so I can use the API.  I read the api-demo project and understand the approach there but would prefer that find_package work as in my project the development is done on one platform (osx) while the nightly builds are done on another (ubuntu).
