Hello everyone

I have a question about the research and use of the library ipopt.
In the CMakeLists.txt of the root library, the library is searched by locating the library ipopt.so and a particular header, using the variable IPOPT_INSTALL_PREFIX given by the user.
However, (at least) the last version of ipopt (3.10.1) provides a .pc file that gives all those informations, and I think it would be cleaner to use this method instead so as to lighten the code and avoid burdensome research of dependencies. Thus I'd like to replace the current implementation by one that uses the .pc file.

Do you agree?
