Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I was trying to disable manifest mode when invoking vcpkg in a dir with vcpkg.json and wasn't able to find any mentions of --feature-flags switch.

Setting VCPKG_FEATURE_FLAGS= didn't help either (I assume vcpkg treats present, but empty value as not present and defaults to builtin features).

I had to dig into source code to find --feature-flags=-manifests option

Proposed solution

  1. add --feature-flags= to the --help output
  2. document --feature-flags on vcpkg.io website
  3. document how to disable feature with VCPKG_FEATURE_FLAGS env var
