cmake: make the ExternalProject test work
By micromanaging the project dependency and its inclusion into the test
project. It feels like an awkward construct, but perhaps better than
nothing.

It's also fragile because it's a static build with no assistance from
the external project (curl in this case). Mitigated in test by disabling
all dependencies and some features.

Since there is no special core cmake logic to be tested here, in CI
the test is tested really. To keep CI jobs at minimum, only add 3 of
them, taking 42s in total. (All 6 would take 270s.)
