Description:

With Arch enabling CONFIG_AUDIT=y since kernel 4.18, and enabling audit support in systemd since 239.2 (dropping -Daudit=false from meson_options), it would be nice if libpam.so and friends also had libaudit support.

pam's ./configure (in absence of --<enable|disable>-audit) enables or disables audit support based on the presence of libaudit; the only change that needs to be made is adding 'audit' to the depends=() array.

Note that because 'audit' is now pulled in to 'base-devel' by systemd anyway, at pam's next recompilation it would link against libaudit, regardless of if it is listed in depends=() (unless --disable-audit is passed to ./configure). And linking against it without depending on it would certainly be bad.
