The only interesting thing is that the behaviour has changed recently: the
PACKAGECONFIG implementation now sets PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS and it's up to
the recipe and/or class to do what it needs with it.  autotools.bbclass
adds it to EXTRA_OECONF, cmake.bbclass adds it to EXTRA_OECMAKE, and so
on.  In the past it was added directly to EXTRA_OECONF but that made
integration with non-autotools harder.
