It's not necessary, as the target_link_libraries command contains an
absolute path already, and the path given doesn't exist anymore,
leading only to linker warnings like:
ld: warning: directory not found for option
'-L/Users/travis/build/google/googletest/build/googlemock/gtest/src'
This policy setting will silence a warning when using with a visibility settings on targets. Due to the forced `cmake_minimum_version`, policy settings in CMakeLists calling this one (including the main CMakeLists) are lost, forcing the change to be made here.
Modify library install destinations to install .dll's to the correct
location (`bin`, not `lib`), and to install other artifacts to the
correct platform-dependent location by using GNUInstallDirs. This is
required for some distributions (e.g. Fedora) and will fix an issue that
otherwise requires those distributions to patch the upstream sources.
Also, add options to suppress installation, which may be useful for
projects that embed Google Test.
Since Google Test is trying to support archaic versions of CMake, a
brain-dead fallback (which requires that the user set either LIB_SUFFIX
or CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR themselves) is included for versions that
predate GNUInstallDirs.
Fixes#1161.

When this option is set gtest itself is built with -fvisibility=hidden
with gcc and clang. This replicates MSVC's default behaviour with gcc
and clang.
