Using install(DIRECTORY ... TYPE ...) results in "can't find error"

[sprenger120]

In my project I use something like this

install(DIRECTORY
        include
        TYPE INCLUDE)

This causes the following error

CMake Error at ament_cmake_symlink_install/ament_cmake_symlink_install.cmake:100 (message):
  ament_cmake_symlink_install_directory() can't find
  '/home/user/ros2ws/src/package/TYPE'
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  ament_cmake_symlink_install/ament_cmake_symlink_install.cmake:326 (ament_cmake_symlink_install_directory)
  cmake_install.cmake:46 (include)

It looks like ament is not expecting these kind of options. I would simply change my code to make it work but a package I depend on installs its stuff using the code mentioned above and I can't change it.
I think I found the function, that is responsible here

Yeah, I think that we need to update this argument parsing logic: https://github.com/ament/ament_cmake/blob/rolling/ament_cmake_core/cmake/symlink_install/ament_cmake_symlink_install.cmake.in#L18

...based on this full signature: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/install.html#installing-directories

I think we may need to plumb the values deeper into the function calls in that file, but it might be easier and safer to come up with a way to "fall back" to a normal install if symlink installation doesn't support all of the given arguments.
