configure: add hints to a remedy for feature_not_found errors

Modify feature_not_found to accept an optional second parameter to be
printed after the generic feature not found error.

Modify most calls to feature_not_found to provide hints as to the
packages that may be missing. The few calls remaining without a remedy
are ones I couldn't work out how to remedy myself.
