[netCDF #LIS-736240]: 4.2.0 separate libraries

> beta3/4 looking good.  Just a couple questions:

> Is this meant to be 4.2.0, or does it not track the main version #?

It is not supposed to track the main version numbers (see here: 
http://www.gnu.org/s/libtool/manual/html_node/Updating-version-info.html), but 
it does need to be updated. I've updated the numbers for both libraries, and 
put a release candidate release of each of them on the ftp site:

ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-cxx4-4.2-rc1.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-cxx-4.2-rc1.tar.gz

> 
> Also, none of the separate C++ libraries have pkg-config files.  Intentional
> or oversight?

Intentional for the legacy C++ library, which also has no ncxx-config script. I 
want people to use the cxx4 library; the other is provided for backward 
compatibility only, and I don't think there are many users who will want it.

I have added the pkg-config files to the cxx4 dist.

Thanks for all the help Orion!
