[Rock-dev] Rock News: managing the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE through tags

[Sylvain Joyeux]

This is not really news, but I thought that I could (read: should have) 
share it with the crowd.

The overrides.rb file in rock.base has a bit of code that sets up 
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE based on tags that are set in the packages manifest.xml.

The tags are defined as a comma-separated field in a <tags></tags> XML 
element. For instance,

   <tags>stable</tags>

The following tags have an effect on the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE for CMake 
packages:

   stable: build in Release mode
   needs_opt: build in RelWithDebInfo mode

If none of the two above are given, it is built in Debug mode.
