Can we keep both libraries separate, ie. no runtime dependency? The
libbtrfs still has some use internally, the deprecation should happen on
the application level.

If there are some exported functions in libbtrfs that are (and should)
be provided by the util library, then we can use the same .o for
building as a temporary solution.
