That should be ?sys:libsqlite3. There is actually an example of the
correct command line shown in the instructions:

$ bpkg build libodb-sqlite ?sys:libsqlite3

If the location of the libsqlite3 header/library that you would like to
use is not in the compiler's default search paths (or the ones you have
already added with -I/-L), then you will need to add the suitable -I/-L
options; build2 will only look for the library in the compiler's build-in
search paths plus what you have specified with -L. One thing that may
throw things off is a broken pkg-config (.pc) file that has something
like -I/usr/include hardcoded in it. So you may want to just removing it
(libsqlite3 should link fine without it).

No, there is no way to cause this. But perhaps adding the following
will have the same effect:

config.cc.loptions=-Wl,--strip-all
