prefix=/mingw64 missing in openssl.pc file

[newhoggy]

Description / Steps to reproduce the issue

Reproduction:

# pacman -Sw mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl
# tar xvf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl-3.3.0-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

The above pc file does not use prefix.

Expected behavior

# cat mingw64/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc
libdir=/mingw64/lib
includedir=/mingw64/include

Name: OpenSSL
Description: Secure Sockets Layer and cryptography libraries and tools
Version: 3.3.0
Requires: libssl libcrypto

Actual behavior

# cat mingw64/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc
libdir=/mingw64/lib
includedir=/mingw64/include

Name: OpenSSL
Description: Secure Sockets Layer and cryptography libraries and tools
Version: 3.3.0
Requires: libssl libcrypto

Example good case for another library

# pacman -Sw mingw-w64-x86_64-gmp
# tar xvf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/mingw-w64-x86_64-gmp-6.3.0-2-any.pkg.tar.zst
# cat mingw64/lib/pkgconfig/gmp.pc
prefix=/mingw64
exec_prefix=${prefix}
includedir=${prefix}/include
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib

Name: GNU MP
Description: GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library
URL: https://gmplib.org
Version: 6.3.0
Cflags: -I${includedir}
Cflags.private: -DGMP_STATICLIB
Libs: -L${libdir} -lgmp

Because prefix= and ${prefix} are not used in the openssl case, this breaks openssl in Github Actions.

Work around:

wget https://repo.msys2.org/mingw/mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl-3.2.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
pacman -Uy mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl-3.2.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

Confirmed. Thanks.

Note that prefix isn't strictly needed, since our pkg-config computes it automatically. But if it's missing the automatic fixing of the other variables starting with /mingw64 instead of "${prefix}" fails.
