It is only used by the pacsearch command, which isn't that useful, and this is the only thing pulling in perl in "base", so move it to optdepends

Arch also has it in optdepends for example.

libpsl .pc file is missing some deps

it was missing libunistring

just require the deps instead of trying to replicate the flags,
and add libunistring to cflags.private

before:

$ pkgconf --libs --static libpsl
-lpsl -lidn2

after:

$ pkgconf --libs --static libpsl
-lpsl -lunistring -lidn2 -liconv -lunistring
