I don't have a link to previous discussion handy, but I definitely
recall that it's been discussed. I don't think that would mean that
libpgcrypto couldn't depend on libpgcommon, but the reverse direction
would make libpgcrypto essentially mandatory which I don't think is a
direction we want to go for both technical and legal reasons.
