Disable building libzcashconsensus by default
The library is not currently a supported build artifact; it needs work in
order to build on certain platforms (e.g. MacOS), and its dependencies need to
be narrowed down (Equihash is not a requirement for validating scripts).

We don't use any elliptic curves from OpenSSL anymore, nor include this
header anywhere but optionally in the tests of secp256k1 (which has
its own autoconf setup).

- guard PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG with an m4_ifdef. If not building for windows,
require it
- add nops as necessary in case the ifdef reduces the if/then to nothing
- AC_SUBST some missing _LIBS. These were split out over time, but not all were
properly substituted. They continued to work if pkg-config is installed
because it does the AC_SUBST itself
Disabling warnings can be tricky, because doing so can cause a different
compiler to create new warnings about unsupported disable flags. Also, some
warnings don't surface until they're paired with another warning (gcc). For
example, adding "-Wno-foo" won't cause any trouble, but if there's a legitimate
warning emitted, the "unknown option -Wno-foo" will show up as well.
Work around this in 2 ways:
1. When checking to see if -Wno-foo is supported, check for "-Wfoo" instead.
2. Enable -Werror while checking 1.
If "-Werror -Wfoo" compiles, "-Wno-foo" is almost guaranteed to be supported.
-Werror itself is also checked. If that fails to compile by itself, it likely
means that the user added a flag that adds a warning. In that case, -Werror
won't be used while checking, and the build may be extra noisy. The user would
need to fix the bad input flag.
Also, silence 2 more additional warnings that can show up post-c++11.
Unfortunately, the target namees defined at the Makefile.am level can't be used
for *.in substitution. So these new defines will have to stay synced up with
those targets.
Using the new variables for the deploy targets in the main Makefile.am will
ensure that they stay in sync, otherwise build tests will fail.
