Installing MACOSX_BUNDLE targets requires a BUNDLE DESTINATION.

This policy determines whether the install(TARGETS) command must be
given a BUNDLE DESTINATION when asked to install a target with the
MACOSX_BUNDLE property set.  CMake 2.4 and below did not distinguish
application bundles from normal executables when installing targets.
CMake 2.6 provides a BUNDLE option to the install(TARGETS) command
that specifies rules specific to application bundles on the Mac.
Projects should use this option when installing a target with the
MACOSX_BUNDLE property set.

The OLD behavior for this policy is to fall back to the RUNTIME
DESTINATION if a BUNDLE DESTINATION is not given.  The NEW behavior
for this policy is to produce an error if a bundle target is installed
without a BUNDLE DESTINATION.

This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.6.0.  CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD behavior.  Use
the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or NEW explicitly.
