Fix for request #1639. Don't have unremovable options for the configure command. Allow user to override the usual args passed by the extention towards cmake via configureSettings.
The easy way to address this is to make sure we append the configure settings last in the configure command, not first as they were. For example, a user defined CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE would be passed to cmake but immediately overwritten by our default calculation. Since cmake can take multiple appearances of the same switch and the last one wins, makes sense to append configure settings (which come from the user) last.
