Why not assume that it could be removed at the next release and make
plans to migrate to a maintained FTS engine? If dovecot-fts-lucene is
currently working for you then dovecot-fts-flatcurve might be a good
alternative. (Another option is to not update. You might think that's
a bad idea, but with fts-lucene you already on something which is
outdated so that isn't new).
