Methane Asteroids External Dependencies

All external libraries and build tools are integrated using CPM.cmake package manager script. Specific versions of the dependent repositories are cloned and configured during MethaneKit CMake configuration step either to the Build/Output/ExternalsCache directory (by default) or to the custom location provided via CMake option CPM_SOURCE_CACHE. Under CLion IDE dependent repositories are cloned inside cmake build directory of each configuration to support parallel cmake configurations processing.
