cmake: detect and use libc-provided iconv
While most systems provide a separate iconv library against which
applications can link, musl based systems do not provide such a library.
Instead, iconv functions are directly included in the C library. As our
current CMake module to locate the iconv library only checks whether a
library exists somewhere in the typical library directories, we will
never build libgit2 with libiconv support on such systems.
Extend the iconv module to also search whether libc provides iconv
functions, which we do by checking whether the `iconv_open` function
exists inside of libc. If this is the case, we will default to use the
libc provided one instead of trying to use a separate libiconv. While
this changes which iconv we use on systems where both libc and an
external libiconv exist, to the best of my knowledge common systems only
provide either one or the other.
Note that libiconv support in musl is held kind of basic. To quote musl
libc's page on functional differences from glibc [1]:
The iconv implementation musl is very small and oriented towards
being unobtrusive to static link. Its character set/encoding
coverage is very strong for its size, but not comprehensive like
glibc’s.
As we assume iconv to be a lot more capable than what musl provides,
some of our tests will fail if using iconv on musl-based platforms.

Don't search iconv in /opt/local
Since OpenSSL isn't used any more on OS X, there is no dependency
on any MacPorts library under /opt/local and there is no danger of
conflicts between MacPorts and system iconv. For this reason the
system iconv can always be used now.

We never search for libiconv via pkg-config
So we actually also never know that we can set a dependency on it in
pkg-config. Instead always give it the -L and -l options.

Find and use a MacPorts version of libiconv. Fixes #2017.
- Add correct -I, -L and -l flags
- Search for libiconv in /opt/local/[include|lib] before in the
system path. See #2017 for details.
- Give splitted -L and -l arguments to pkg-config

Cleanup FindIconv.cmake
Doesn't change anything. Just removes stuff that was probably missed
to remove when this was imported.

Improve iconv finding for cmake
* add FindIconv helper for CMake iconv detection
* only default using iconv to ON for MacOS
* update pkg-config generation to include iconv dependency better
