Have check_pkg_config() enable variables and set cflags and extralibs
instead of relegating that task to require_pkg_config. This simplifies
require_pkg_config(), is consistent with what other helper functions
like check_lib() do and allows getting rid of some manual variable
setting in places where check_pkg_config() is used.
The early check for inconsistent in-source vs out-of-source build
cannot generate a config.log otherwise.

Fixes all sorts of configuration problems introducec by dad7a9c7c0
on non-Linux or non-vanilla configs. Also removes a line made redundant
in that commit.
This allows distinguishing between the internal variable name for
external libraries and the pkg-config package name. Having both
names available avoids special-casing outside the helper function
when the two identifiers do not match.
Weak dependencies on external libraries do not obviate having to
explicitly enable these libraries, so the weak dependency does not
simplify the configure command line nor have any real effect.
Place all temporary files within a single, quasi-atomically created
temporary directory rather than relying on unsafe 'mktemp -u'. This
prevents possible race conditions in case two parallel 'mktemp -u' calls
returned the same path. Additionally, it reduces TMPDIR pollution by
keeping all test files in a single subdirectory.

Newer versions of OS X use the blocks extension in VDA-related headers.
Some compilers, like current gcc, do not support the blocks extension
and fail to compile code using those headers.
If we only have a target compiler but no host compiler, the $type
variable will be empty once.
(Currently we fail to do a cross build if no host compiler is available
due to using the host compiler for processing option lists though.
But despite that, this comparison in configure needs quotes.)

This can be useful to filter out noise in known-broken scenarios like
miscompilation by legacy compilers and similar.

This moves work from the configure to the Make stage where it can
be parallelized and ensures that pkgconfig files are updated when
library versions change.
Bug-Id: 449
This moves work from the configure to the Make stage where it can
be parallelized and ensures that shared libraries are built with
the right version number in the filename.
Without any optimization flags, MSVC does no dead code elimination (DCE) at
all, even for the most trivial cases. DCE is a prerequisite for building libav
correctly, otherwise there are undefined references to functions for other
architectures and disabled components.
-O1 is the minimal optimization flag for MSVC that does include DCE.
