Thanks, I tested this on a couple of my cmake projects. After adding the new dependency on pkgconf, all worked as expected |

The last two commits are from #631, with only the commit title updated. They make it possible for CMake to find the libraries to link against via pkg-config.
These two commits had the problem that they fix CMake, but by doing so are breaking direct usage of
nxdk-pkg-config(and probably meson) because the emitted linker arguments are inldsyntax, while we rely on the syntax oflink.exe.This PR circumvents this issue by switching from whatever pkg-config the host OS provides to explicitly requiring
pkgconf(which is the defaultpkg-configimplementation on Arch, Alpine and probably others anyway).pkgconfprovides a--msvc-syntaxparameter that can be used to get the requiredlink.exe-style linker parameters. This would add an additional.libsuffix to the library paths (resulting in things likelibjpeg.lib.lib), so I added a smallsedcommand to fix that.
