json-c: backport patch to fix uClibc link issues

We need to link against libm as we get linker errors otherwise:

<sysroot>/usr/lib/libjson-c.so.2: undefined reference to `__isnan'
<sysroot>/usr/lib/libjson-c.so.2: undefined reference to `__isinf'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Backport the upstream patch.

+Subject: [PATCH] Link against libm when needed
+
+In certain C libraries (e.g uClibc), isnan() and related functions are
+implemented in libm, so json-c needs to link against it. This commit
+therefore adds an AC_TRY_LINK() test to check whether a program
+calling isnan() can be properly linked with no special flags. If not,
+we assume linking against libm is needed.
+
+The json-c.pc.in file is also adjusted so that in the case of static
+linking against json-c, -lm is also used.
