Subject: [PATCH] Fix library detection under shells whose echo does not expand
 escapes

The OpenSSL, wolfSSL, PCRE2 and PAM probes built their test program with
echo "...\n...". make runs recipes through /bin/sh, which is dash on Debian
and Ubuntu, where the builtin echo expands \n. On distributions where /bin/sh
is bash - every RPM based distribution, and macOS - it does not, so the probe
compiled

    #include <openssl/ssl.h>n int main(){return 0;}

which is not valid C. Every probe therefore failed and the build silently
dropped TLS, PCRE2 and PAM support with no diagnostic.

Use printf, which expands escapes the same way everywhere.
