Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Using the vcpkg PDAL package to read pointcloud data has worked great for me, until a client supplied one in e57 format. After doing some cursory investigation, reading/writing this format is included as a plugin for PDAL, but none of the plugins are included in the vcpkg build.

Proposed solution
Please include plugins in order to support more pointcloud file formats.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative is to return to building directly from source and setting the appropriate cmake options. Because of the myriad of dependencies this is probably not going to be a straightforward process imho.
