build: drop the pkg-config requirement from the Windows build (#15469)

The FFmpeg camera view port made pkg-config a required build tool on
Windows. Windows does not ship one, so every Windows developer has to
install it before the build will configure:

  Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE)
  Call Stack (most recent call first):
    CMakeLists.txt:480 (find_package)

Nothing on Windows needs it. FFmpeg there is a prebuilt zip unpacked
into the deps prefix, whose DLLs the top level CMakeLists already names
by exact soname. The version is fixed before configure runs, so
find_library against that prefix does the job, as on macOS.

Also drops the CI step that installed pkg-config, gated on !SELF_HOSTED
so it never ran on self-hosted runners, and re-comments the if(WIN32)
block that #15234 uncommented only for that find_package.
