Subject: [PATCH] connection: add an option to compile obsolete nodes

Since version 4 of sysrepo and libyang, obsolete nodes are no longer
compiled by default.
The sysrepo commit in the link makes sysrepo compile obsolete nodes.
Add the compile_obsolete option, so that sysrepo can create a libyang
context with the obsolete nodes.
