Fix lintian warning "build-depends-on-obsolete-package"

Apparently, pkg-config is deprecated in favor of pkgconf:
<https://bugs.debian.org/1020799>,
<http://pkgconf-migration.debian.net/>

Therefore, prefer pkgconf in the build dependencies.

* debian/control (Source: mandos/Build-Depends): Change "pkg-config"
  to "pkgconf | pkg-config".
