Added CMake configure-time download instructions to docs

Adds instructions for how to add gtest and gmock to
another CMake project directly. Downloading of the
googletest sources happens as configure time, allowing
it to be added to the main build directly via the
add_subdirectory() command. This ensures googletest is
built with the same compiler settings, etc. and will
typically result in a more robust and more convenient
build arrangement.

+#### Incorporating Into An Existing CMake Project ####
+
+If you want to use gtest in a project which already uses CMake, then a
+more robust and flexible approach is to build gtest as part of that
+project directly. This is done by making the GoogleTest source code
+available to the main build and adding it using CMake's
+`add_subdirectory()` command. This has the significant advantage that
+the same compiler and linker settings are used between gtest and the
+rest of your project, so issues associated with using incompatible
+libraries (eg debug/release), etc. are avoided. This is particularly
+useful on Windows. Making GoogleTest's source code available to the
+main build can be done a few different ways:
+
+* Download the GoogleTest source code manually and place it at a
+  known location. This is the least flexible approach and can make
+  it more difficult to use with continuous integration systems, etc.
+* Embed the GoogleTest source code as a direct copy in the main
+  project's source tree. This is often the simplest approach, but is
+  also the hardest to keep up to date. Some organizations may not
+  permit this method.
+* Add GoogleTest as a git submodule or equivalent. This may not
+  always be possible or appropriate. Git submodules, for example,
+  have their own set of advantages and drawbacks.
+* Use CMake to download GoogleTest as part of the build's configure
+  step. This is just a little more complex, but doesn't have the
+  limitations of the other methods.
+
+The last of the above methods is implemented with a small piece
+of CMake code in a separate file (e.g. `CMakeLists.txt.in`) which
+is copied to the build area and then invoked as a sub-build
+_during the CMake stage_. That directory is then pulled into the
+main build with `add_subdirectory()`. For example:
+
+New file `CMakeLists.txt.in`:
+
+    cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.2)
+ 
+    project(googletest-download NONE)
+

 Before settling on CMake, we have been providing hand-maintained build
 projects/scripts for Visual Studio, Xcode, and Autotools.  While we
 continue to provide them for convenience, they are not actively
