VS: Use $(ConfigurationName) as CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR in VS 7, 8, 9
This will allow us to use a value other than just the config name for the project OutputDirectory setting used for $(OutDir). Also use $(ConfigurationName) instead of $(OutDir) for the link directory configuration suffix since that is a hard-coded instance of a use case for CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR.

+vs7-OutputDirectory
+-------------------
+
+* The :variable:`CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR` variable value for Visual Studio
+ 7, 8, and 9 is now ``$(ConfigurationName)`` instead of ``$(OutDir)``.
+ This should have no effect on the intended use cases of the variable.
+
+* With Visual Studio 7, 8, and 9 generators the value of the ``$(OutDir)``
+ placeholder no longer evaluates to the configuration name. Projects
+ should use ``$(ConfigurationName)`` for that instead.
