  Meson can use cmake as a fallback for detecting packages, and this can
lead to picking up 64-libs for 32-bit builds. To work around this, force
the use of pkg-config only for detecting libcrypto, zlib, jansson and
other package dependencies.

NOTE, as I do not have all packages for DPDK on my system I have not
verified that pkg-config files are present for all dependencies,
specifically:
* libAArch64crypto
* netcope-common (which in error message is reported as "libnfb"?)
* libsze2
Maintainers, please double check these work ok.

Subject: [EXT] [PATCH] build: force pkg-config for dependency detection

External Email

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Meson can use cmake as a fallback for detecting packages, and this can lead to picking up 64-libs for 32-bit builds. To work around this, force the use of pkg-config only for detecting libcrypto, zlib, jansson and other package dependencies.

NOTE, as I do not have all packages for DPDK on my system I have not verified that pkg-config files are present for all dependencies,
specifically:
* libAArch64crypto
* netcope-common (which in error message is reported as "libnfb"?)
* libsze2
Maintainers, please double check these work ok.
