First, it is purely optional and require active decision of the user to build 
PROJ that way. This is only meant to be used by people wanting to mix GDAL 
master + PROJ master + GDAL dependencies built with against old PROJ version. 
This is useful in particular for CI purposes where I want to be able to pull 
GDAL dependencies built against PROJ 4.9.x.
This is meant at managing the transition before all the stack is built against 
PROJ 6

3 -> 4 transition.
