It's not a compile-time option, packages will build with whatever
version is provided.

I don't want folk with a currently working system (whether they
compile from source, or use packages) to suddenly have to locate a new
libgpiod.
Admittedly part of this stems from when the API change was first
mentioned, at which point there were no libgpiod3 packages, and we
were being told we had to start using the new version, but should
build it from source.

Anyway, I think it is done, now, I am just about to test on my Pi400
running Buster.... (Yes, but, that's what was on the SD card in that
machine, and it feels like an extreme test)
