Add build2 package (cppget.org) #18

@gistrec

Description

@gistrec

The library is already available via vcpkg (port geo-utils-cpp) and is in flight for Conan (#17) and xrepo (xmake-io/xmake-repo#9942).
This issue tracks publishing the library to cppget.org to cover the build2 ecosystem.

Status

  • Add build2 packaging files (manifest, buildfile, package layout) to the repo
  • Install build2 toolchain locally
  • Run bdep publish to upload to https://queue.cppget.org
  • Package accepted into alpha/beta/testing (auto-promoted on first successful build)
  • Promotion to stable (requires human review + tests as separate subpackage)
  • Update README with build2 installation instructions

Open questions

  • Package name: build2 convention strongly favors lib-prefix and no -cpp suffix → likely libgeo-utils. Trade-off vs. consistency with vcpkg/conan/xrepo where the name is geo-utils-cpp.
  • Where to keep packaging files: alongside CMake in master, or in a separate staging repo.
