So here is a good compromise suggested by Mauro.

1. We add the following to the lirc.h uapi header.

#define LIRC_CAN_NOTIFY_DECODE 0
#define LIRC_CAN_SET_REC_FILTER 0

2. Since lirc daemon is unmaintained, I am happy to take on maintainership.

This may require forking, depending on what the maintainer says.

How does that sound?
