Is it possible to pass a Cmake option to the Canonfile?

I want to use Cmake options for my build, but also use them for conditional dependency installing in canonfile.

One use-case is when we have some Cmake options that we use for adjusting the build and then we want to pass the same options to the Conan to install the requires based on these options.

Options to adjust the build https://github.com/lefticus/cpp_starter_project/blob/master/src/CMakeLists.txt The place that we could pass them to the Conan file: https://github.com/lefticus/cpp_starter_project/blob/master/cmake/Conan.cmake

This makes it easier to separate the build configurations from package management configuration.
