[PATCH 2/2] Optionally use an external popt library

[Dan Nicholson]

The one imported into pkg-config has seen very little maintenance, so
let's give users the option to use the upstream version. The default is
to use the included sources, but it can search for the system library
using --with-installed-popt.
