[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 3/3] tools/pkgconf: Add patch to fix meson compilation.

The wrapper calls pkgconf with multiple arguments. meson wants to call
it with a single --version argument. To keep compatibility with
pkg-config, revert the upstream version change.

This fixes projects that use meson and pkg-config to find packages.

+Subject: [PATCH] Revert "main: assume --modversion insted of --version if
+ other flags or module names are provided"
+
+This reverts commit 12a0eb124cea85586e57f33c91a1e4c73459eef6.
+
+This "user friendly" behavior is actually detrimental. pkg-config is very
+often wrapped in a shell script of cross-compiling toolchains. Such wrappers
+may pass extra arguments, such as --static, (reasonably) not expecting that
+to break --version. Some build systems (meson being one example) use
+--version to determine whether pkg-config is usable. Naturally, the wrappers
+fail this test, even though they would've worked with the original pkg-config.
