Summary:                    FindPkgConfig module doesn't honor
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
Description: 
There is a environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH, which makes pkg-config to look
for .pc's there first. For now, the only way to pass this variable to the
FindPkgConfig i've found is to run cmake executable with this env var set.
Wouldn't it be more consistent and neat to make FindPkgConfig to look at
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH?
