enzyme/BUILD file conflicts with CMake convention, IDE integration

[samuelpmish]

A common CMake convention is to name the build directory simply "build", but on my mac this conflicts with the BUILD file in enzyme. As a result, the instructions on the main readme don't work

% cd Enzyme/enzyme 
% cmake . -Bbuild 
CMake Error: Unable to (re)create the private pkgRedirects directory:
/Users/sam/code/Enzyme/enzyme/build/CMakeFiles/pkgRedirects

and CMake emits a cryptic error message (the reason it can't make that directory is because build is a file). Is it possible to rename that BUILD file to something else to avoid this conflict with case insensitive file systems?

So unfortunately that is the required file for the bazel build system.

ah, I'm not familiar with bazel. Maybe we can update the readme to suggest a different build directory name for cmake then
