Yes, wxWidgets I can now use straight from vcpkg.

I took a look at wxPython phoenix and the build system is...something else.
Is anyone more experienced with Python build systems?
It seems like the happy path for vcpkg is for projects that use cmake.
This hybrid of Python and C++ with custom build system in Python looks
like a headache to integrate.

I have not looked at SWIG yet.  OCC it seems like is in progress (we
are less worried about that one)
