It looks like some issue in the gcr3 meson build system has caused ssh-
add and ssh-agent to be required for gcr3 even if they are not really
used. The meson usage is fixed for gcr4, so for gcr4 openssh shouldn't
be required.
It even shouldn't be recommended because the gcr4 ssh-agent is just
useless unless we enable it as a systemd per-user unit. And enabling it
is known to be problematic so all major distros are still using the
gnome-keyring ssh-agent (that gcr4 ssh-agent is *supposed* to replace).
So for gcr4, I'm going to demote it to optional and add -D
ssh_agent=false into the book instruction. For gcr3, I'm going to fix
up the meson.build file with some sed and demote it to optional too.
