Description

Hi! It'd be nice to have an easy way to disable kind-projector, e.g. for builds of other compiler plugins (so that they can be built for a Scala version KP doesn't support).

Research direction

Start by tracing where sbt-typelevel configures or enables kind-projector, then inspect the related plugin settings and build behavior. Done means users can disable kind-projector for selected builds while the current behavior remains the default; verify the plugin still works for supported Scala versions.
