Subject: [PATCH] Link against libm when needed

In certain C libraries (e.g uClibc), isnan() and related functions are
implemented in libm, so json-c needs to link against it. This commit
therefore adds an AC_TRY_LINK() test to check whether a program
calling isnan() can be properly linked with no special flags. If not,
we assume linking against libm is needed.

The json-c.pc.in file is also adjusted so that in the case of static
linking against json-c, -lm is also used.

Submitted upstream: https://github.com/json-c/json-c/pull/182
