Windows (CMake, VS 2017, Python 3.5.1): build of python bindings fails

[matejk]

When compiling libiio, Python bindings can't be built.

Build fails with an error:

CUSTOMBUILD : error : package directory 'C:Users\matejk\Documents\git\libiio\bindings\python' does not exist [C:\Users\matejk\Documents\git\libiio-build-64\bindings\python\libiio-py.vcxproj]

The path that can't be found seems to have backslash missing after the C:

libiio.dll and cli tools are built properly.

Environment:

• Windows 10
• Visual Studio 2017
• Build target: Release
• Build platform: x64
• Python version: 3.5.1
