Add development package files for both:

  • pkgconfig
  • CMake

These make it easier for downstream projects and (distro) packagers to package and use the projects, as well as chaining library dependencies.

A pkgconfig file is useful to determine the required path to the header
when installed outside of the system include directories.
A CMake config-file package can be used also on Windows systems and by
libraries that want to support multiple platforms.
Using the pkg-config derived variable `pcfiledir` allows creating a
pkgconfig file that can be installed and used to an arbitrary path.
