[PATCH 1/2] Makefile: use curl-config to determine curl flags

[Dave Borowitz <dborowitz@google.com>]

curl-config should always be installed alongside a curl distribution,
and its purpose is to provide flags for building against libcurl, so
use it instead of guessing flags and dependent libraries.

Allow overriding CURL_CONFIG to a custom path to curl-config, to
compile against a curl installation other than the first in PATH.

Use this only when CURLDIR is not explicitly specified, to continue
supporting older builds.
