vcpkg ignoring default-features: false in custom overlay

[patrikhuber]

Describe the bug .\vcpkg.exe install my-test-package --overlay-ports=C:\Users\MyUser\vcpkg-custom-overlay --dry-run where my-test-package has a vcpkg.json with:

  "dependencies": [
    {
      "name" : "vcpkg-cmake",
      "host" : true
    },
    {
      "name" : "vcpkg-cmake-config",
      "host" : true
    },
    {
      "name": "opencv4",
      "default-features": false
    }
  }

ignores the default-features: false flag and wants to install: * opencv4[core,default-features,dnn,jpeg,png,quirc,tiff,webp]:x64-windows@4.8.0#19

Environment

• OS: Windows 11
• Latest vcpkg (cloned today)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git vcpkg-clean
2. cd .\vcpkg-clean\
3. .\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
4. .\vcpkg.exe install my-test-package --overlay-ports=C:\Users\MyUser\vcpkg-custom-overlay --dry-run

produces the following output:

Computing installation plan...
The following packages will be built and installed:
    my-test-package:x64-windows@1.0.0 -- C:\Users\PatrikHuber\Projects\vcpkg-custom-overlay\my-test-package
  * flatbuffers:x64-windows@24.3.25
  * libjpeg-turbo:x64-windows@3.0.2
  * liblzma:x64-windows@5.4.4
  * libpng:x64-windows@1.6.43#1
  * libwebp[core,libwebpmux,nearlossless,simd,unicode]:x64-windows@1.4.0#1
  * opencv4[core,default-features,dnn,jpeg,png,quirc,tiff,webp]:x64-windows@4.8.0#19
  * protobuf:x64-windows@3.21.12#2
  * quirc:x64-windows@1.2
  * tiff[core,jpeg,lzma,zip]:x64-windows@4.6.0#4
  * vcpkg-cmake:x64-windows@2024-04-18
  * vcpkg-cmake-config:x64-windows@2022-02-06#1
  * vcpkg-get-python-packages:x64-windows@2024-01-24
  * zlib:x64-windows@1.3.1
Additional packages (*) will be modified to complete this operation.

Expected behavior It should only install opencv4[core], without default-features (dnn etc.).

Failure logs See above.
