pkg-config support

The PkgConfig class is useful by itself.  It allows reading and writing
of pkg-config files.

This file, when executed, will read a .pc file and print the result of
processing.  The result will be functionally equivalent, but not identical.
Re-running on its own output *should* produce identical results.

  """
  Contents of a .pc file for pkg-config.

  This can be initialized with or without a .pc file.
  Such a file consists of any combination of lines, where each is one of:
    - comment (starting with #)
    - variable definition (var = value)
    - field definition (field: value)
  (Allowable fields are listed in PgkConfig.fields.)
  All fields and variables become attributes of this object.
  Attributes can be altered, added, or removed at will.
  Attributes are interpolated when accessed as dictionary keys.

  When this is converted to a string, comments in the original file are
  re-printed in their original order (but all at the top), then any
  non-field attributes (as variables), then fields, and finally,
  unrecognized attributes from the original file, if any.

  @note Variables may not begin with '_'.
