Please describe the problem you are trying to solve?
Installing dependencies such as PETSc or Boost solely for preCICE can be tedious on some systems.

Describe the solution you propose.
When CMake cannot find an enabled dependency, download, build and install the dependency using CMake ExternalProject.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Don't change anything

Additional context
This is feedback from the Workshop 2020.
