cmake export does not include version information

[Caldfir]

The cmake exported info does not include the software version. This was a bit confusing since cmake itself ships with FindGLEW.cmake, which also doesn't identify the GLEW version. What currently happens during a build is that this library's export is consulted, no version is found, so the build falls-back to FindGLEW and ignores any version information specified in find_package. This makes the build look like it succeeded, but you can't actually be certain of the GLEW version it will actually attach to your project.

I believe the update would need to go somewhere in this block:

glew/build/cmake/CMakeLists.txt

Line 208 in 67e980b

if(MAYBE_EXPORT)

The addition of CMakePackageConfigHelpers.cmake to the default cmake toolset should make this straightforward to update. A relevant example can be found here:

Thanks for the youtube link. I do agree that the cmake build could be further improved.
