    force pkg-config to only use --prefix when cross-compiling
    
    The current pkg-config setup has no sense of whether it is cross-compiling,
    so it will detect things on the build system that are not present or are
    wrong for the host system.  This forces the cross-compiling build to only
    look for pkg-config .pc files in --prefix.
    
    A version of this has been the setup for many years with the Android builds.
    
    Fixes #32191
