Before this patch, `pkg-config` was used for `UNIX` builds only (with a few exceptions like wolfSSL, libssh, gsasl, libuv). This patch extends `pkg-config` use to all envs except: `MSVC` without vcpkg. Meaning MSVC with vcpkg will now use it. Also mingw on Windows. Also apply the new condition to options where `pkg-config` was used unconditionally (= for all targets). These are: `-DCURL_USE_WOLFSSL=ON`, `-DCURL_USE_LIBSSH=ON`, `-DCURL_USE_GSASL=ON` and `-DCURL_USE_LIBUV=ON` This patch may still cause regressions for cross-builds (e.g. mingw cross-build from Unix) and potentially other cases. If that happens, we recommend using some of these methods to explicitly disable `pkg-config` when using CMake: - CMake option: `-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=` (or `-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=nonexistent` or similar) This is similar to the (curl-specific) `PKG_CONFIG` env for autotools. - export env: `PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=` (or `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`, `PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR`, or the CMake-specific `PKG_CONFIG`) We may improve control over this in a future patch, also allowing opting in MSVC (without vcpkg).
