cmake find_package(libzip) support

[benstieg]

It would be nice if find_package(libzip REQUIRED) would work after vcpkg.exe install libzip.
Installing something like the attached files to the installed<your-triplet>\share\libzip when installing libzip should do it.

libzip-config.cmake.zip

@benstieg would you take a look at possibly fixing the linked issue upstream?

You can use the CMake standard module FindPkgConfig to detect and use libzip:

@ras0219-msft Using the cmake files provided by benstieg does work. I know that upstream fixes are preferred but as I am not a cmake-wizard, I am not of a big help here. But would committing the above files as module patch in vcpkg be an acceptable solution?

I've added find_package() support to libzip itself in nih-at/libzip@dadba12
Pull requests with improvements welcome!

So now that libzip 1.7 is in vcpkg, vcpkg has decided to export the target as zip instead of libzip::zip. I don't know why but vcpkg likes to export a bunch of libraries with names that differ from what you'd import them as in any other environment (e.g. I have to search for FFMPEG (which isn't even the name of the library; it's FFmpeg) instead libavcodec, libavutil, etc.) and it's extremely annoying to have to add these workarounds. This one is particularly egregious because it goes against the convention of the CMake targets that libzip specifically exports.

My mistake; I didn't realize this was changed in 1.7.2. Still, the FFMPEG bit is annoying.

Now, libzip support to export cmake configuration files.

Same with pkgconfig.
