For system installs (especially when trace-cmd and trace-cmd are
separate packages), it's nicer to have trace-cmd install a pkgconfig
file. Then the kernelshark can cmake use pkgconfig for getting the
build options to find the headers, libraries, and binaries.
See https://people.freedesktop.org/~dbn/pkg-config-guide.html for
documentation on pkgconfig and pkgconfig files.
