PKGBUILD tweaks

If you want to build with clang, add this part to cmake flags:

    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER='clang++' \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER='clang' \

If you want to use bundled fuzzylite:

    -DFORCE_BUNDLED_FL=ON \

If you want to use innoextract (system-wide installation won't work since vcmi has a temporary? fork of innoextract for now):

    -DENABLE_INNOEXTRACT=ON \

PKGBUILD should be updated to include minizip as dependency instead of build dependency, as vcmilauncher requires libminizip.so.1

The vcmi.install file seems incomplete since the previous update. But that doesn't break the builds, so maybe the file is just not needed anymore and could be deleted?

@xcom can't repro on my machine. Can you please share some more details, some error would be good?

Currently it's not building with the latest Arch packages. Maybe the new libboost broke it.

please add qt6-svg to the dependencies

1.7.0 released, PKGBUILD-side changes:

The CMakeLists.txt in laucher/lib/innoextract needs a similar treatment to the main one, as it is also trying to look for the boost system component uncoditionally.

Still unable to build with:

    -DENABLE_INNOEXTRACT=ON

Similar error:

CMake Error at /usr/lib/cmake/Boost-1.89.0/BoostConfig.cmake:141 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "boost_system"
  (requested version 1.89.0) with any of the following names:

    boost_systemConfig.cmake
    boost_system-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "boost_system" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "boost_system_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "boost_system" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
  has been installed.

There is a problem with Boost 1.89. Looks like it can be solved by this change https://github.com/dscharrer/innoextract/pull/199
