Looks like they are hardcoded to me. So would require a (simple) code change.

Simply click on aspect and type 4:5 when the pop-up opens

Why not use the one that’s already there? If you need vertical orientation, just click the circular arrow to the right.

I’m using 2.4.4, but it should be in 2.2.1 as well.

That. And if you ever need to add another aspect ratio you can also add it to your darktablerc:

Thanks!
