Main problem is that libpcap supports only one from LINKTYPE_LINUX_SLL
and LINKTYPE_LINUX_SLL2

Not in the version in the libpcap Git repository; both are supported.

Tests (make check) are broken as the output is different [2].

Not in the version in the tcpdump Git repository; it supports both DLT_LINUX_SLL and DLT_LINUX_SLL2.

There is no warning/detection about using different version than libpcap
uses (libpcap using LINKTYPE_LINUX_SLL and we use LINKTYPE_LINUX_SLL2
and vice versa).

Given that, in the Git repository versions, there are no such configuration options, this is not an issue.
