add `CMake: Install Component`

[bebuch]

Brief Issue Summary

This is a feature request for CMake: Build Target via Ctrl+Shift+P.

For build I can call CMake: Build and CMake: Build Target.

For install I can call CMake: Install but not CMake: Install Component because its missing. It should work analogously to CMake: Build Target.

Additional Information

I use CMake Tools 1.19.52 with VS Code 1.97.2.

What is the estimated effort? Is this a minimal change or something that would take time to implement?

@bebuch @Amy-Li03 Thank you for your patience.

I would expect this to be a "medium" feature. It should be relatively easy to follow the pattern of the CMake: Build Target command, and then as you pointed out, the CMake docs define a way to install specific components.

However, I can't make any estimates or guarantees for when we will get to this work based on all of our other priorities. However, I will ensure that it's labeled appropriately and on our backlog.
