I'm in agreement  with Phil. Whilst support for userspaces that from
2009 is patchy at best with modern software (you'll need an equally
old udev, systemd won't happen, etc) this is a trivial change but
let's be clear that it's an option to handle older external userspaces
and not our so there should be a PACKAGECONFIG for rfkill that
defaults to enabled.
