I like the second approach, with a 'uuid' feature option. As you wrote
earlier, adding an 'auto' choice to a combo option doesn't work fully
like a real feature option.
But what does uuid_library=auto do? Which one does it pick? This is
not a behavior we currently have, is it?
I would rename the ssl_type variable to ssl_library, so that if we ever
expose that as an option, it would be consistent with uuid_library.
