CMake Build: Do not rely on only pkg-config for FindXYZ CMake modules

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Currently we have some PkgConfig::XYZ CMake targets which will always require pkg-config.

      I found the following:

      cmake/FindWrapSystemHarfbuzz.cmake
cmake/FindWrapBrotli.cmake
cmake/FindGTK3.cmake
cmake/FindXRender.cmake
cmake/FindXKB_COMMON_X11.cmake
cmake/FindLibsystemd.cmake
cmake/FindLibproxy.cmake
cmake/FindDirectFB.cmake
cmake/FindLibudev.cmake
cmake/FindATSPI2.cmake
cmake/FindLibb2.cmake
cmake/FindMtdev.cmake
cmake/FindTslib.cmake

      The following find CMake modules have both pkg-config and CMake find_path and find_library calls in one module:

      cmake/3rdparty/extra-cmake-modules/modules/ECMFindModuleHelpers.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/extra-cmake-modules/find-modules/FindEGL.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/kwin/FindLibdrm.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/kwin/FindLibinput.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/kwin/Findgbm.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/extra-cmake-modules/find-modules/FindX11_XCB.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/extra-cmake-modules/find-modules/FindGLIB2.cmake
cmake/3rdparty/kwin/FindXKB.cmake
cmake/FindWrapSystemHarfbuzz.cmake
cmake/FindWrapSystemPCRE2.cmake
cmake/FindZSTD.cmake
cmake/FindMySQL.cmake
cmake/FindGSSAPI.cmake

      The FindXYZ CMake modules should have both capabilities to be able to work in scenarions when pkgconf package is not installed.
