Use buildroot host pkg-config instead of system pkg-config #98

This is related to issue #66. I explained my findings in the discussion there.

We don't distribute the host/bin directory with the Nerves systems so this won't work. I think this only worked for you since you created a custom system. In general, we couldn't distribute pkg-config in the Nerves system even if we wanted since we'd need one for MacOS and the various architectures we support. The best thing to do is use whatever pkg-config the user has installed. I left a message in #66 since we need to figure out what's breaking the pkg-config that you have installed and fix that.
