Previous discussion: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/18944#discussion_r556596410.

Need to read over it & test it out.

(Note that I don't think app-alternatives/ is likely to be appropriate here; this is almost entirely about the library rather than the userland tools which always end up prefixed anyway because of binutils, e.g. elfutils installs eu-strip, not 'strip' or 'elf-strip', etc).
