This method simplifies the conversion of Feature objects to booleans.
Often, one has to use the "not" operator in order to treat "auto"
and "enabled" the same way.
"allowed()" also works well in conjunction with the require method that
is introduced in the next patch. For example,
if get_option('foo').require(host_machine.system() == 'windows').allowed() then
src += ['foo.c']
config.set10('HAVE_FOO', 1)
endif
can be used instead of
if host_machine.system() != 'windows'
if get_option('foo').enabled()
error('...')
endif
endif
if not get_option('foo').disabled() then
src += ['foo.c']
config.set10('HAVE_FOO', 1)
endif

D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
This is a special type of option to be passed to most 'required' keyword
arguments. It adds a 3rd state to the traditional boolean value to cause
those methods to always return not-found even if the dependency could be
found.
Since integrators doesn't want enabled features to be a surprise there
is a global option "auto_features" to enable or disable all
automatic features.
