That would work as well, yes, but then we need to make sure it "works"
even when there's no grammar installed.  I assumed that it is currently
unusable without a grammar, but I just tried and it seems to work OK (no
worse than fundamental-mode, which is all we need).  So yes, we could
simply setup `auto-mode-alist` unconditionally via `;;;###autoload`.

And users could still use `cmake-mode` (or any other alternative) by
configuring `major-mode-remap-alist`.
