Currently, this would break a number of packages.  The reverse
dependencies need to be updated to deal with both the msgpack-c /
msgpack-cxx split (which most have) and also to deal with the CMake
config renames that upstream did.

The former is tracked by
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1018679 and looks like
it's almost done.  I should raise the severity of the blocking issues
and double check others haven't crept in since I initially filed that.

Another round of checks is also needed to see what the impact is for the
CMake config rename.  I'll look into creating a tracking bug for that
and try to get some traction.

Please don't.
