Uli Schlachter c7cdb0e479 CMake: Add "AUTO" state for WITH_DBUS and GENERATE_MANPAGES
Previously, these options had two possible values: ON and OFF.

Now, they have three possible values: ON, OFF, and AUTO.

OFF still does what it always did: The feature is just disabled.

With ON and AUTO, we check for the feature. The difference is what
happens when the feature could not be enabled, e.g. because some
dependencies is missing: With AUTO, we just disable the feature (this is
what happened previously with ON). However, with ON, CMake aborts and
prints an error.

Implements: Suggestion by Daniel

# Add a new option with default value "auto":
# autoOption(FOOBAR "Support foobar")
#
# To check if FOOBAR support should be enabled, use:
# if(FOOBAR)
#
# If necessary dependencies for FOOBAR are missing, use:
# autoDisable(FOOBAR "Did not find baz")
#
# Example:
# autoOption(FOOBAR "Support foobar")
# if(FOOBAR)
# Check for FOOBAR here.
# if(NOT BAZ_FOUND)
# autoDisable(FOOBAR "Did not find baz")
# endif()
# endif()
