Add cppad to the compiled ports

[GiulioRomualdi]

This PR adds cppad to the compile ports. This will simplify the porting of bipedal-locomotion-framework in the robotology superbuild robotology/robotology-superbuild#526

I forgot to migrate away from add-path and the related commands apparently.

Done in 9eea746 Do you prefer I open a separate PR?

Could it make sense to also add casadi?

Given the time taken for CI, I think that one PR is fine.

qhull from vcpkg could be useful as well?

Well I'm actually a bit skeptical about that. Casadi can be compiled with several options (for instance enabling osqp) Here we do not have some dependencies

If I'm not mistaken qhull on vcpkg is broken (regarding find_package stuff)

It make sense, probably we should first have osqp as a port in vcpkg, and then to that.

@GiulioRomualdi I am quite happy that all the CI worked at the first try, but unfortunately I realized that you added cppad to the wrong list, the dependencies of Gazebo, not in the dependencies of the robotology-superbuild (that is earlier).
