Collectd's configure.ac uses AC_CHECK_LIB to test for the availability
of DPDK, but that macro will hard-code the linker flag to -ldpdk which
does not exist anymore in DPDK 18.11 (it was a linker script
previously).

The fix is to stop doing compile-time checks if the pkg-config file is
available and satisfies the dependency. A pull request has been opened
upstream, and I will follow-up with a backported patch once accepted.
