Undefined reference to Assimp symbol

[mkoval]

When building DART (and another project that depends on it) with GCC, I get this linking error referring to the Assimp::IOSystem::ComparePaths(char const*, char const*) const function:

undefined reference to symbol '_ZNK6Assimp8IOSystem12ComparePathsEPKcS2_'

I can fix this by manually linking my project against assimp. The obvious solution is to make the DART_LIBRARIES variable exported by DARTConfig.cmake include ASSIMP_LIBRARIES (similar to how DART_INCLUDE_DIRS includes EIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIRS).

However, I don't think this should be necessary. I suspect that this is caused by the same root issue as #451 that we discussed in #452, #455, #459, and #542.

Need to check if this is persistent.

Closing since I cannot reproduce this error. Feel free to reopen if this is still persistent.
