Rationale: since sol2 is a header-only library, some projects might
use it as a private dependency instead of exposing it through their API.
Thus, it is useful to have an option to not install sol2, in order to
reduce the installation size as well as to avoid accidentally exposing
internal dependencies in the top-level project.
The project I work on is a demonstration of how the feature might be
used:
f4a20ec39e/external/CMakeLists.txt (L84)
(mind the different name of the CMake variable, I renamed it to fit the rest
of the sol options convention)
We have an install-check script script which verifies that only expected
headers, libs, targets and docs are exported (the one which are interesting
from users PoV). I wouldn't mind contributing the script as github workflows
if you want to use it as well - please provide feedback if that's desired.
Here is a link to our script for preview:

While modifying the CMake code, I noticed a 4-space instead of TAB in one
place and fixed it to be consistent with the rest of the CMake code.
notably, test normal + single + generated + Lua 5.3.5 only once,
then only run the runtime_test and compile_test for normal for all other permutations to help increase text matrix throughput
Update container documentation
Fix ISSUE_TEMPLATE
Fix up documentation for quick and dirty, pulling example source directly from bundled code
addresses #578
Add abort_clean so that CI does not get stuck on a message box that can never be answered
alignment rules do not apply to stack variables, so the tests cannot have the alignment check in the destructor: only for memory pushed into and coming straight out of Lua
Add name of project at top of license
fix container_traits with respect to boost::property_tree: Fixes#554
fix as_table with a vector of tuples (forward_get ignored constness): Fixes#552
