spkg-configure.m4 for libpng #27186

@embray

Description

@embray

Also should be done for #27168

Note libpng comes in a number of different ABI versions, usually indicated in the library filename as a suffix like "12" (for 1.2.x) up through "16" (for 1.6.x), where 16 is the most current and currently supported by Sage. Distros like Debian has separate packages for each libpng ABI version.

I think to keep it simple we should specifically check for and require libpng16. I don't know if all of Sage's dependencies support older libpngs.
