autotools: improve libunwind detection

Libuwind may not be shipped with a pkg-config file.
It can be distributed on the system, but the autotools
would fail to detect it because it relied only on pkg-config.

We now first check with pkg-config, and then try to compile and
link a program using libuwind to see if it is supported anyway.

This is a first step towards a working eina_log_backtrace on
Mac OS X.

+dnl File to auto-detect libunwind
+
+dnl Macro that checks for libunwind, first by using
+dnl pkg-config, then by trying to compile and link a simple
+dnl program, to see if libunwind is distributed on the system
+dnl but has no pkg-config support
+dnl
+dnl The biggest usecase is on Mac OS X, where there are no
+dnl pkg-config files, and the libunwind headers are lost
+dnl in an obscure place on the system (but whom the compilers
+dnl distributed by Apple are aware of).
+dnl
+dnl Usage: EFL_CHECK_LIBUNWIND
+dnl  will inconditionaly set UNWIND_CFLAGS and UNWIND_LIBS
+dnl  to follow pkg-config fashion.
