  On Buildroot and when building for Arm using the Bootlin toolchain, the
actual `pkg-config` is named just `pkg-config`, not
`arm-linux-pkg-config`. This patch allows the external build system
(such as Buildroot) to pass a working path.

This is already done correctly in tools/build/feature/Makefile and
tools/thermal/tmon/Makefile and also fixed in other places many years
ago (9961aa665b70e47d6c80141c4a2482266010f246), but for some reason it
was never fixed in this file.
