Add port for vcpkg

[Nomade040]

Hello, I think this project would be more accessible if present in vcpkg.

Cheers.

Hello. This sounds like a nice thing to have.

I looked a bit over vcpkg docs and it looks like we need a tagged release in order to be able to add it to vcpkg. We don't have a tagged release, yet, but we are working on making one.

It also looks like it is easier to add a port for a project that is using CMake, which we don't use for bddisasm.

I'll get back to this once that is done.

I looked a bit more over the docs and and I'm wondering how useful it would be for vcpkg users. bddisasm is not using cmake for builds, and vcpkg seems to be built around that. For Linux builds I can probably generate a pkgconfig file at build/install time and cmake users can use pkg_check_modules to get the required build information, but that feels a bit like a hack.

@Nomade040 do you have a specific use case in mind?

My bad, I didn't know that vcpkg required cmake and bddisasm doesn't use it. Vcpkg is really helpful for me because you just install a library once and at least on Visual studio which is my main IDE I just #include whatever library I had previously installed.

This is easy to handle and it looks like it does not need any kind of special treatment.

microsoft/vcpkg#18046 which adds a port for bddisasm was just merged. I may also take a look at Conan in the future, but for now I'm going to close this issue.
