Comment:
Upstream has been telling us unequivocally for a long time to stop using this program. We need to rip off this Band-Aid and stop patching our configs to do things we shouldn't have been doing in the first place. We are now at the point where we are causing problems for upstream because our users are complaining to them when our problematic configuration changes break. This is inconsiderate and should not be allowed to continue.

The marginal benefit of keeping p-m-s going and adopting the conditional change is that some users *who have not already switched to wireplumber* in the months we've been warning them to do so, but will *suddenly decide to do so before we drop p-m-s*, can do so with a drop-in configuration snippet that will become a no-op after we actually drop the session manager.
1. Those that have already switched to WirePlumber will have already shadowed the system configuration. This isn't a major issue, but can be a minor inconvenience because they may not notice other configuration changes that would have to be reconciled with their overrides.
2. All remaining users will still have their pipewire configuration break at some point in the future when p-m-s stops working properly.
