The incremental linking features in MSVC create unacceptably long build and link times. Our hand-crafted project files always had "/INCREMENTAL:NO" set, but CMake didn't know to do that. This change to the CMake rules causes our generated projects to have "/INCREMENTAL:NO" set properly.

Note: The "/INCREMENTAL:YES" is being set by CMake internally: https://cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2010-February/035174.html See local file "cmake-2.8\Modules\Platform\Windows-cl.cmake" for details of this been set.
