cmake-1.1 portgroup: add Xcode Generator

Description
At the moment, there's no way to specify Xcode as a Generator in the CMake 1.1 PortGroup. Attempting to specify
cmake.generator Xcode
results in the following error:
Error: Unable to open port: can't set "cmake.generator": The "Xcode" generator is not currently known/supported (cmake.generator is case-sensitive!)
Using the Xcode Generator causes CMake to generate an Xcode project (.xcodeproj) during the configure phase, and seems like it would be fairly common use case.
For the time being, I can tell CMake to use the Xcode Generator by using the CMake 1.0 PortGroup, and specifying
configure.args-prepend "-G Xcode"

looks like a fairly easy addition for someone:
