A new clang-config program is certainly not a cmake-based solution.
There are standalone pkg-config versions for Windows and it is the
prefered way of dealing with this kind of problems on Unix. There is
pre-existing cmake logic for dealing with pkg-config. As such, I believe
it is a good idea to avoid reinventing the wheel.
