[qt5-static] pkgconfig files contain bogus paths

[davidgiven]

Description / Steps to reproduce the issue

...producing errors like:

C:/msys64/mingw32/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/13.2.0/../../../../i686-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find C:/M/B/src/MINGW32/qtbase/lib/libqtpcre2.a: No such file or directory

This is caused by bad data in the pkkconfig files. Install mingw-w64-i686-qt5-static or equivalent, and then do:

$ PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/mingw32/qt5-static/lib/pkgconfig pkg-config.exe Qt5Widgets --libs --static

Notice that some of the paths contain C:/M/B. Looking at /mingw32/qt5-static/lib/pkgconfig/Qt5Widgets.pc, I see this paths baked into the Libs.private variable:

Libs.private: C:/M/B/src/MINGW32/qtbase/lib/libQt5Gui.a -ld3d11 -ldxgi -ldxguid C:/M/B/src/MINGW32/qtbase/lib/libqtlibpng.a C:/M/B/src/MINGW32/qtbase/lib/libqtharfbuzz.a -lcomdlg32 -loleaut32 -limm32 -lglu32 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 C:/M/B/src/MINGW32/qtbase/lib/libQt5Core.a -lmpr -luserenv -lversion -lz C:/M/B/src/MINGW32/qtbase/lib/libqtpcre2.a -lzstd -lnetapi32 -lws2_32 -ladvapi32 -lkernel32 -lole32 -lshell32 -luuid -luser32 -lwinmm -luxtheme -ldwmapi -lshell32 -lcomdlg32 -loleaut32 -limm32 -lwinmm -lws2_32 -lole32 -luuid -ladvapi32 -lglu32 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -luser32
