meson: use pkg-config method to find dependencies
We do not need to ask cmake for the dependencies, so just use the pkg-config mechanism. Keep "auto" for SDL so that it tries using sdl-config too. The documentation is adjusted to use SDL2_image as the example, rather than SDL which does not use the "pkg-config" method. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
