Automatically locate pdbs in the build tree and copy them adjacent to all DLLs.
vcpkg_copy_pdbs(
[BUILD_PATHS <glob>...])The <glob>s are patterns which will be passed to file(GLOB_RECURSE),
for locating DLLs. It defaults to using:
${CURRENT_PACKAGES_DIR}/bin/*.dll${CURRENT_PACKAGES_DIR}/debug/bin/*.dll
since that is generally where DLLs are located.
This command should always be called by portfiles after they have finished rearranging the binary output.
