Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have successfully compiled Carla 0.10.0 from source. However, unlike previous versions, this version does not provide the make LibCarla option, which prevents me from compiling the Carla client and performing the installation.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the current version to include the make LibCarla compile option as it was available in earlier versions. This would allow users to compile the Carla client and install it as before.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Additional context
I deeply appreciate the work that has gone into developing Carla and sincerely hope that this enhancement can be implemented in a future release. Your efforts in supporting the community are highly valued, and I eagerly look forward to this improvement. Thank you for your consideration.

You can use cmake --build Build --target carla-help to look into the possible targets. The target you are looking for is carla-server and carla-client

I have tried this, and it says no work to do, and I still cannot get carla-client library, wondering and looking for help.

That means it is already built.
You can find the .lib in Build folder

Something more, when I using libcarla with Carla 0.9.15, it need dynamicly link boost, and make LibCarla do provide these dynamic link files such as libboost_system.so, libboost_filesystem.so and so on, while with Carla 0.10.0, I only get libcarla_client.a, that confused me
