Use pkg-config to determine linker options for libedit

Currently, building sftp with libedit support assumes that -ledit
depends on -lcurses. However, libedit may depend on -lncurses or
-ltermcap instead. On SLES 10 for example, libncurses may exist but
not libcurses.

Perhaps pkg-config should be used to check what libraries are required.
