The project doesn't install anything

You need to add install instructions.

@kevinsmia1939 vcg shouldn't be installed when building meshlab, but only used with add_subdirectory.

Right now the vcg cmake configuration is not complete (due to some portions of library that are not completely header-only), and should be used:

• to build the examples
• with add_subdirectory from other projects.

Hope that this will be fixed in the future.
