Not necessarily meant to be a reference, but 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal-extra-drivers/ has a CMake integration for 
plugin drivers

Ah ah, apparently those were my own words, seeing 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/4092 . Well, reviewing a new driver 
for a format you're not familiar with is obviously a significant task, 
that said I did an initial review of it and gave some hints to make it 
progress. For major contributions, some tenacity might be necessary to 
convince grumpy maintainers :-)
