e037c4fe0914d8fa9149ce7532c0d70f738e79e9 depends: always configure with --with-pic (fanquake)
Pull request description:
We currently do this sporadically. Not only amongst packages, but across OS's, i.e sometimes it's done for BSDs/Android, and sometimes not.
Configure with `--with-pic` globally instead. I think this generally makes more sense, and should not have any downsides.

bcff8e21b1bb360c3cf1e1d2e1a2a54ec7581720 build: only pass --disable-dependency-tracking to packages that understand it (fanquake)
Pull request description:
By blanket passing `--disable-dependency-tracking` to all depends packages we end up with warnings (i.e in `bdb` or `freetype`) like:
```bash
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --disable-dependency-tracking
```
Instead, only pass it to packages that actually understand it. Related to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16354.
More info on `--disable-dependency-tracking` available [here](https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Dependency-Tracking.html).
This PR also adds `--enable-option-checking` as a configure option to all applicable packages.

Pull request description:
```
We use pkg-config where we can, which generally replaces libtool at a
higher level and does not have the same downsides as libtool. These
archives sit in our depends tree with no purpose and pollute the final
bitcoin build with massive overlinking.
```
See [here](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Handling_Libtool_Archives) for an explanation of the various problems libtool archives can cause.

Pull request description:
Related to #16354.
This PR adds additional configure flags to packages in depends to explicitly disable features we aren't using; similar to #16183. It also fixes passing `--without-tools` to `qrencode`.
I've added `--disable-drafts` to `zeromq`:
```bash
Build and install draft classes and methods [default=yes]
```
I'm not entirely sure how far we want to take this. i.e in the `zeromq` package we explicitly pass `--without-libsodium`, even though it's disabled by default.
Do we also want to explicitly pass all the other `--without` flags? :
```bash
--with-libgssapi_krb5 require libzmq build with libgssapi_krb5
[default=no]
--with-libsodium use libsodium instead of built-in tweetnacl
[default=no]
--with-pgm build libzmq with PGM extension. Requires pkg-config
[default=no]
--with-norm build libzmq with NORM protocol extension,
optionally specifying norm path [default=no]
--with-vmci build libzmq with VMCI transport [default=no]
```
