It is already the default (for new installations). On upgrades the
non-glvnd variant will be kept installed (and upgraded). (Automatically
switching at upgrade time is not easily possible as long as we want to
provide both.)
But the variants can be exchanged later, installing the alternative
implementation will cause removal of the currently installed one.
