Subject: build: improve pkg-config doc and error handling

Error-handling improvement suggested by Mike Frysinger in:
http://bugs.gnu.org/16757#29
* NEWS: Document pkg-config changes.
* README-prereq: pkg-config is now a prereq when building from
repository.
* m4/pcre.m4 (gl_FUNC_PCRE): Report an error if pcre is explicitly
requested but not available.  Defer to user-supplied PCRE_CFLAGS
and PCRE_LIBS.
