Finally got CMake and Cargo/Cbindgen to play together nicely. The file example/CMakeLists.txt shows how easy it is for other CMake users to use the project. If the user isn't using CMake, they can still run cmake --install <build path> --prefix <where to install> to install the library file(s) and header, and they should be able to use it as any C library.

One funny note (I wasn't aware of this before) is that Windows doesn't have an equivalent to RPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so if the install location for the project isn't in one of Windows' usual directories for finding DLLs, in the PATH, or in the same directory as the user's executable, Windows won't find it. This can be worked around by running any command that uses the DLL like so: PATH=<path to DLL folder> ./<my_executable>.exe. This is a Windows issue, not a CMake or Rust one.
