Summary: Use pkgconfig database to detect Xft

Initial Comment:
I need a way to detect at runtime whether or not Tk was
built with --enable-xft.

The TIP #59 pkgconfig database seems like the best way
to do this.  The attached patch sets the configuration
key "fontsystem" to "xft" if Tk was built with
--enable-xft, and leaves it undefined otherwise.  Other
suggestions for configuration key names welcome.

(I notice that Tk doesn't currently use
Tcl_RegisterConfig anywhere else.)
