Subject: [PATCH] handle file paths to libraries

Typically pkgconfig files specify cflags for linking with -L and -l,
however, pkgconfig files can also specify paths to library files. For
example, building Qt5 statically on macOS generates the following
pkgconfig file. Notice the absolute path to libqtpcre.a in Libs.private:

prefix=/Users/be/qt5-installed
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

host_bins=${prefix}/bin
qt_config=debug_and_release release debug build_all c++11 c++14 c++17 c++1z concurrent dbus no-pkg-config reduce_exports release_tools static stl

Name: Qt5 Core
Description: Qt Core module
Version: 5.15.5
Libs: -L${libdir} -lQt5Core
Libs.private: -framework DiskArbitration -framework IOKit -lm -framework AppKit -framework Security -framework ApplicationServices -framework CoreServices -framework CoreFoundation -framework Foundation -lz /Users/be/sw/qt-everywhere-src-5.15.5/qtbase/lib/libqtpcre2.a
Cflags: -DQT_CORE_LIB -I${includedir}/QtCore -I${includedir}

Building Qt5 statically on macOS with vcpkg generates this pkgconfig
file which has a handful of file paths for libraries:

prefix=${pcfiledir}/../..

exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include/qt5

host_bins=${prefix}/tools/qt5/bin
