generate packages for different option values

Feature request

Right now if I set CONAN_BUILD_TYPES="Debug,Release" CPT will create two packages for Debug and Release build types. However CONAN_OPTIONS does not work in the same way. I’m not sure if this is a feature or a bug.

For example, if I set CONAN_OPTIONS ="foobar:with_bar=True,foobar:with_bar=False" only one package is created. It would be great if CPT allow creating permutations for options as well,

@uilianries I agree and think such new option will be very handy

@boussaffawalid Your request is not bad, but inserting option values which are not explicit, are not good IMO. For instance, fPIC is only distributed as True.

I think we could add new option like CONAN_BUILD_ALL_OPTIONS=foo:qux,foo:bar which do what you need.
