[OE-core] [PATCH] xfconf: fix 'Failed to get connection to xfconfd' during do_rootfs

Packages such as gdk-pixbuf can result in the following error during
the rootfs construction:
  CRITICAL **: 16:51:57.223: Failed to get connection to xfconfd: Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY

This is hit during the postinst-intercepts/update_pixbuf_cache.

Based on discussions upstream this appears to be an issue for xfconf
and has an upstream update

https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfconf/commit?id=6f11cc65a2213f424728b5a0d25b1b63c19e773e

Drawing from this change we can go ahead and use PACKAGECONFIG to
emulate it.

Guys,

This is still broken in Yocto and I would like to see it fixed. I haven't
dug into the issue as much as you two so I wanted to float this fix
out there but hold back from calling it a proper fix. Please let
me know what you think or feel free to take this, evaluate it and
modify it into a full fledged fix.
