[PATCH v2] xfree86: Only support one sysconfigdir

When the X server is compiled with --prefix set to something other than /usr,
then it ends up with a nonstandard sysconfigdir in its .pc file.  This causes
various other components to install their xorg.conf.d snippets there.

However, the X server first looks for /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d before looking
in sysconfigdir.  That means that if the system administrator installed anything
that created that path, the user's custom sysconfigdir is not searched.

Rather than doing that, just look in the configured sysconfdir and nowhere else.

Here's version 2 that just drops the /usr/share hardcode.
