Installation is now enabled if either building as a top-level project or if the `${NAMESPACE}_INSTALL` variable is set to ON. Updated documentation to explain how to enable installation in non-top-level projects, improving support for package managers and advanced workflows.
Introduces a CMake option `${NAMESPACE}_INSTALL` (defaulting to `PROJECT_IS_TOP_LEVEL`) to explicitly enable or disable installation of the library. Updates documentation and refactors install logic to use this option, allowing more flexible control for both top-level and subproject builds.
