Consider making build of tests/examples explicit about morphologica HOT 6 CLOSED

This might have happened if you built and installed morphologica without first having installed the glfw library on your system. If the cmake process fails to find glfw, then a make install won't install Visual.h and all the other headers required for graphical programs. Here's the relevant section of the CMakeLists.txt: https://github.com/ABRG-Models/morphologica/blob/main/morph/CMakeLists.txt#L16

I'm just trying to build standalone_examples/schnakenberg with an installed morphologica (installed into /usr/local/). There are one or two headers that are not installed - base64.h is one.

I made sure that the Schnakenberg example in standalone_examples/ will compile against an installed morphologica now (see the most recent couple of commits). Let me know which example you're trying to build if you are still stuck.

@sebjameswml Yeah I tried building/installing morph in isolation omitting examples & tests.

-Can you maybe make dependencies and examples explicitly optional (from the top level cmake) or the morph cmake "standalone". I.e use FindModule for glfw there

(also tried HEAD / 3efe3ab)

Making deps and examples explicitly optional is possible, so that it's a simple make && make install process (buildling all the tests and examples does take quite a while).

I don't think I'll change the build process. When you type make, you'll just get all the tests and examples compiled.
