build: Add soup2 option

!1940 added support for soup 3, including a fallback to soup 2.4
where the newer version isn't available.

Unfortunately it missed that libgweather has a hidden soup dependency,
and now gnome-shell fails to start if a weather location has been set
up and soup 3 is available.

We don't have a good way to detect that case, so hide the soup 3 support
behind a build option. Distributors are expected to switch it at the
same time as libgweather.
