CMake extend - Githubissues

This pull request makes these changes:

add BUILD_EXAMPLE & BUILD_TEST option, let user can choose whether build example program and unittest program, build all by default to keep backward compatibility
add output info of all the configurable options
change library project version to 0.2.0 (you may want to change it to 0.2.1 or whatever after accept this pull request)
add support for building static library, by default build shared library as usual to keep backward compatibility
static library and shared library's exported target name has shared/static suffix, breaks backward compatibility
set soversion property for library, effects shared library's soname, breaks backward compatibility (personally, it's always a good habit to set soname of a shared library)
use GNUInstallDirs set install directories (for example on redhat is lib64, on Debian is lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, etc)

Hi @JackLiar, Thank you very much for your contribution. Looks good to me! Just out of curiosity: Where do you use the library/ what is your use case?

JackLiar commented 4 years ago

I use this library mainly for monitoring runtime configuration files of a daemon process
