This needs to be (1).

Whichever version we make the change for, there will always be a point
where the pg_dump would be taken with add_missing_from=true by default
and moving to new version with add_missing_from=false. Putting that off
for another release will still allow that failure condition to exist at
that later time: so we must tell people about it now.
