The CMake default is to enable both C and CXX, which leads to build failure if C++ compiler is not present in the build environment. Explicitly stating that we don't need C++ allows distributions that build their packages in controlled environment to get rid of extra g++ build dependency.
Different distributions have different standards about it, so let's add an option for that.

I'm maintaining HeadsetControl package for the distribution I use (ALT Sisyphus). While working on update to 2.5, I found that a couple of minor changes to
CMakeLists.txtwould make my job as a maintainer easier.First, as most of (binary) distros do, we are building our package in a controlled environment that does not have a C++ compiler by default. Specifying that HeadsetControl is C-only project avoids the necessity to install it there.
Second, we're installing udev rules to
/lib/udev/rules.d, which is not a symlink to/usr/lib/udev/rules.dor anything like that. So I added an option to specify where CMake should put the udev rules file.
