Description:
Currently Protobuf is used only by the X plugin.
Building of X plugin can be disabled with cmake -DWITH_RAPID=0
Still, we will build protobuf libraries and executables.

How to repeat:
cmake -DWITH_RAPID=0

Suggested fix:
Tag protobuf targets with
SET_PROPERTY(TARGET xxx PROPERTY EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL TRUE)
