Fix -uninstalled pc files for out-of-tree builds.

${pcfiledir} expands to the directory that the .pc file is in. This isn't right
for out-of-tree builds: we want to add the source directory to the include
path.

In the case of libpurple, we need both because some of the headers are
generated.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the
HOWTOs in the "Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
