I would say it still makes sense to produce a (shared) C++ library for backward ABI (not API) compatibility, though we would expect newly compile applications to use the header-only version and do not link to the C++ library. Currently we have `#ifdef GNUTLS_GNUTLSXX_HEADERONLY`, but maybe we could turn it into `#ifndef GNUTLS_GNUTLSXX_NO_HEADERONLY`, so by default the header-only version will be used (there might be other ways to do so, e.g., through a dedicated namespace, but I'm not an C++ expert :-).
