Research direction

Start with the rmqcpp vcpkg manifest at the linked microsoft/vcpkg ports/rmqcpp/vcpkg.json entry. Check how gtest is declared and how vcpkg represents optional or test-only dependencies. Done means normal rmqcpp installation no longer requires gtest, while the project's tests can still use it if needed.
