[PATCH] D26579: [cmake] Allow CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Gentoo

[Michał Górny via llvm-commits]

I have discussed this with our CMake team further and it seems that we are also using CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE of Gentoo to alter behavior in standard CMake modules (e.g. FindPython*). Using another value will result in CMake behavior that is not appropriate for Gentoo packaging. There may be more hidden issues.

We'll be working on phasing that out but it'll likely take a few months before we can reliably deploy it on everyone. Especially that some of the potential issues are really hard to notice, so it will require a thorough testing.
