FRR supports out of tree dataplane plugins that are built as shared
libraries loaded at runtime. These plugins need access to FRR internal
C headers and to the frr.pc pkg-config file to compile. For example,
grout (a graph router based on DPDK) provides a zebra dataplane plugin
to integrate with FRR.
Add a frr-headers package that installs the C headers and the pkg-config
file. The package depends on libjson-c-dev and libyang-dev which are
required by the headers. Add version constraints via Breaks so that when
frr is also installed, both packages must come from the same source
version.
There are -Wno-* flags in the pkg-config file (needed due to warnings in
FRR headers). This causes lintian *errors*. Silence them with via
a lintian-overrides file.
