Description

Would it be possible to add feature which would allow to resolve optional dependencies?

Pseudo-implementation (which doesn't work):

  def wireOpt[T](enabled: Boolean): Option[T] = {
    if (enabled) {
      Some(wire[T])
    } else {
      None
    }
  }

Thanks for awesome library!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the requested wireOpt[T] entry point and how the existing wire[T] behavior handles dependency resolution. Determine the intended semantics for enabled and disabled optional dependencies, then verify that the feature resolves to Some[T] or None as requested without breaking normal wiring.
