[openssl-dev] [openssl.org #4130] [RFC] Provide enginesdir in pkgconfig file

External engines such as engine_pkcs11 want to install into
$ENGINESDIR. Would be nice if we could tell where it is by using
$(pkg-config --variable=enginesdir openssl)

It's theoretically possible to find it by defining HEADER_CRYPTLIB_H
and then including opensslconf.h, although that's horrid enough even
before you consider cross-compilation (i.e. you can't just use printf).

Can we put it in openssl.pc please?

(Of course, something as fundamental as engine_pkcs11 shouldn't be
external anyway, but that's a different story...)
