Allow to turn off atlas download

[fedorov]

For users like me, who only need registration, this is not really needed - takes a long time to download.

Minor issue, on the relative scale.

This is not likely to be modified anytime in the near future because there are too many other priorities.

No problem. I opened the issue per request from David.

Andrey,

I appreciate it. I'm trying to be better about prioritizing work and quickly killing off the tasks that are not likely to be done so that they don't consume all of our time. You suggestion is a good idea, but it will likely take 15 minutes to implement and 8 hours to test, and potentially 20 hours to fix the fragile downstream data processing that would be broken.

We have been moving towards a different model (BRAINSia/NAMICExternalProjects) to better address these issues more globally.

It isn't a huge thing to fix; I believe there are only a few things that
depend on the Atlas, principally BRAINSTools, and only some of BRAINSTools
components. It will however, take some work to get things set up such that
it's only built if a dependent project is built. So it might be a bit
before I get to it.
