cmake: add knob to disable vcpkg
When building on windows users have the option to use vcpkg to provide the dependencies needed to compile. Previously, this was used only when using the Visual Studio generator which was not ideal because: - Not all users who want to use vcpkg use the Visual Studio generators. - Some versions of Visual Studio 2019 moved away from using the VS 2019 generator by default, making it impossible for Visual Studio to configure the project in the likely event that it couldn't find the dependencies. - Inexperienced users of CMake are very likely to get tripped up by the errors caused by a lack of vcpkg, making the above bullet point both annoying and hard to debug. As such, let's make using vcpkg the default on windows. Users who want to avoid using vcpkg can disable it by passing -DNO_VCPKG=TRUE.
