Since SVN r2428 the pkgconfig file also contains the datadir and
localedir.

Plugin authors can query these values with:
pkg-config --variable=prefix geany
pkg-config --variable=libdir geany
pkg-config --variable=datadir geany
pkg-config --variable=localedir geany

This should be used instead of the "geany --print-prefix" command which
might be removed in future versions.

Enrico
