ASF policy requires that downstream consumers should not be forced to
use non-compatible depenendencies.
Such dependencies are allowed if the product is still usable without.

ASF policy does not allow us to bundle such a dependency with VFS.
The ASF policy of "no surprises" means that non-compatible
dependencies must not be automatically downloaded either.
The consumer must be made aware that the dependency is not available
under the ALv2.

I suspect it will be necessary to use something other than 'optional'
to achieve that - for example 'provided'.
