It will need to follow the established deprecation pattern for N, N-1
releases (N here refers to distro LTS releases, not kernel or iproute2
releases). Meaning, for the next few years it needs to exist as an
option when libbpf is not installed. After that we can add a deprecation
warning that libbpf is preferred, and then at some point in the distant
future it can be removed.
