libimobiledevice participates in a number of dependency cycles relevant
to architecture bootstrap. Instead of looking into that, I looked into
easily droppable dependencies. I found that libreadline-dev is entirly
unused. I also observe that libimobiledevice is build with openssl and
thus libgcrypt20-dev and libtasn1-6-dev are also unused. Furthermore, it
only uses libplist-dev and not libplist++-dev. Please consider dropping
the mentioned dependencies. I'm attaching a patch for your convenience.
