Appendices should be optional #91

Description

@mwoehlke

Right now, the specification does not provide much guidance whether appendices should be loaded.

The behavior of CMake 4.0 is to try to load appendices that provide requested components, or to try to load all appendices when not given specific component requests.

It might be useful for packages to have control over this latter behavior, e.g. an optional attribute that specifies that an appendix should be ignored unless it provides a requested component.
