Subject: [PATCH] Remove build-time check for polkit-gobject-1

polkit-gobject-1 is actually not needed for building elogind with PolKit
support; elogind binaries are not dynamically linked against polkit
libraries, there's only runtime dependency.

I've verified that building without polkit-dev installed won't change the
resulting binaries.

We need to remove polkit-dev dependency from elogind to avoid circular
dependency between polkit and elogind.

See: https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/13095
