Anderson Torres e9fd5bf913 yambar: fix strictDeps compilation
Yambar uses meson as build system. Its `dependency` function uses pkg-config as
default method for finding the required dependencies.

However, as seen in their code[^1], scdoc is searched with `native` set to
true. According to Meson specs[^2], it directs the search to the _build_ machine
instead of the _host_ one. This parameter is usually needed only when finding a
tool to be used during compilation.

Because of this, `pkg-config` needs to be included at `depsBuildBuild`.

Why? Magic! Sorry, I am not so proficient in cross-compilation issues yet.

longDescription = ''
yambar is a lightweight and configurable status panel (bar, for short) for
X11 and Wayland, that goes to great lengths to be both CPU and battery
efficient - polling is only done when absolutely necessary.
It has a number of modules that provide information in the form of tags.
For example, the clock module has a date tag that contains the current
date.
The modules do not know how to present the information though. This is
instead done by particles. And the user, you, decides which particles (and
thus how to present the data) to use.
Furthermore, each particle can have a decoration - a background color or a
graphical underline, for example.
There is no support for images or icons. use an icon font (e.g. Font
Awesome, or Material Icons) if you want a graphical representation.
There are a number of modules and particles builtin. More can be added as
plugins. You can even write your own!
To summarize: a bar displays information provided by modules, using
particles and decorations. How is configured by you.
