probably, eventually, bite someone somehow. I think this is a minor patch,
and serves our purposes quite well, with minimal risk for causing
unexpected trouble. Certainly much easier than spec'ing pkg-config (and
maybe cmake) all the time...
Only thing I can think of is if meson is being used to cross-compile for
another system, but then again they will provide their own cross file and
that can include the needed pkgconfig/cmake wrappers to use
Also tested building {{{dav1d}}} +universal and no issues
