Non-standard variables in %cmake macro

[Jakub Bogusz]

The following variables set in %cmake macro:

    -DINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_includedir} \\\
    -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_libdir} \\\
    -DSHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=%{_datadir} \\\
    -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_sysconfdir} \\\

aren't standard for cmake; they appear in some examples, but are not
actually set or used by cmake distribution.

They are used in KDE4-specific cmake files, but are not standardized
globally; some packages (libgit2, to name one, and I saw at least two
more) expect passed values (if any) to be always relative (to
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX); KDE4 cmake files support both absolute and
relative values.
KDE4 defaults are sane (provided CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and LIB_SUFFIX
variables are passed properly) except for SYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR (which
is ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/etc by default).

My proposal is to remove the first three variables from %cmake macro
and pass them only in the rare cases when they are required.
I'd keep SYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR, because relative value is always wrong
with FHS.

Any better solutions?
