Description
In wscript, set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include:

    20141128 conference call decides:
- "waf-tool for ndn-cxx detection" shouldn't be created, because pkg-config is supposed to be the universal method for package detection
 - pkg-config considers 
PKG_CONFIG_PATHfirst, then default paths; thus, only custom paths need to be injected to the environment - the environment shouldn't be restored after detecting ndn-cxx, because other pkg-config command may also need them
