curl-config is usually installed alongside a curl distribution, and
its purpose is to provide flags for building against libcurl, so use
it instead of guessing flags and dependent libraries.

Allow overriding CURL_CONFIG to a custom path to curl-config, to
compile against a curl installation other than the first in PATH.

Depending on the set of features curl is compiled with, there may be
more libraries required than the previous two options of -lssl and
-lidn. For example, with a vanilla build of libcurl-7.36.0 on Mac OS X
10.9:

$ ~/d/curl-out-7.36.0/lib/curl-config --libs
-L/Users/dborowitz/d/curl-out-7.36.0/lib -lcurl -lgssapi_krb5 -lresolv -lldap 
-lz

Use this only when CURLDIR is not explicitly specified, to continue
supporting older builds. Moreover, if CURL_CONFIG is unset or running
it returns no results (e.g. because it is missing), default to the old
behavior of blindly setting -lcurl.
