Yeah I formerly checked only libgps.h, but the list is somewhat bigger
but still seems manageable:
API:
7.0 - add gps_fix_t.ecef (February 2018) [3]
changed prototype of gps_read() to add buffer parameters [1]
increased length of devconfig_t.subtype [2]
add gnssid:svid:sigid to satellite_t [4][5]
add mtime to attitude_t [6]

I agree there are non encouraging comments in [3], but this is only extra data
no need to use (yet) it in consuming projects.
[2] seems to only need a recompile, but no changes.
[6] needs a rebuild for the struct change, but nothing else as the new field is
unused for now.
Finally the complexity of adapting to [4][5] depends on the usage of PRN which
might not be used in all projects - those two feel the hardest to me atm.
@Seth - it is the "best tool for the job", because it is the only one
that feeds HW time data into chrony.
