PCL requires a patch to be compatible with QHull 2020.2. The patch has been
accepted upstream, but this commit uses a version of the patch from Conda, which
has been backported to 1.11.

pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.

Since the last time I ran this script, the Repology API changed, so I had to
adapt the script used in the previous PR. The new API should be more robust, so
overall this is a positive (no more grepping the error messages for our relevant
data but just a nice json structure).
Here's the new script I used:
```sh
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq -r '.[] | select(.type == "homepage_permanent_https_redirect") | .data | "s@\(.url)@\(.target)@"' \
| sort | uniq | tee script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
I will also add this script to `maintainers/scripts`.
Flags that we now set globally:
- CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT
- CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
can now be removed.

One can build pcl with vtk, qt4, and libXt set to null iff libpng is
explicitly listed as a dependency.
pcl's build system is happy to proceed without those GUI-related
packages as long as libpng is available.
