This so they don't crach when run during a GC collection cycle.

Currently librsvg is missing from vcpkg, causing gtkd to fail because of a missing library.

 introduced a wrong behavior
where the install commands for pkgconfig files were blindly ignoring
$(prefix). This obviously breaks the build and introduces the
possibility of the pkgconfig files not being installed to the system
at all since $(libdir) is not suposed to have a leading /, that is
$(prefix)'s job. All this resulted in a bad makefile being shipped
in the 3.9.0 release.

Closes #269

Install pkgconfig into libdir instead of datadir

The installed libraries will be installed into libdir because they are
architecture specific. Consequently, the pkgconfig files can not be
architecture independent because they reference architecture specific
files.

The datadir variable becomes unused with this change, so remove it.

Update version to 3.8.4

instance.

This fixes a warning printed to stderr about a missing toggle ref, and a
possible memory leak.

We may want to check  the actual toggle ref data instead of assuming we
have the correct instence if the "gObject" data equals this.

Keeping the GC root can cause a reference cycle when signals are involved.
