Description:
------------
In Mojave, remove /usr/include and put system headers on only /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/include: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode_release_notes/xcode_10_release_notes#3035624

Yesterday, I tried to compile PHP with iconv bundled Mojave, but ./configure reports an error: Please reinstall the iconv library.
I researched the reason and I found that shared libraries bundled Mojave have strange extensions, `.tbd`.

```
$ xcrun --show-sdk-path
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk
$ ls $(xcrun --show-sdk-path)/usr/include/iconv.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/include/iconv.h
$ ls $(xcrun --show-sdk-path)/usr/lib/libiconv.*
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/lib/libiconv.2.4.0.tbd
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/lib/libiconv.2.tbd
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/lib/libiconv.tbd
$ ls /usr/include
ls: cannot access '/usr/include': No such file or directory
$ ls /usr/lib/libiconv.*
/usr/lib/libiconv.2.4.0.dylib
/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
/usr/lib/libiconv.dylib
```

configure of PHP check only `.dylib` for macOS libraries.  Actually, `.tbd` is also a shared library extension for macOS and make works well after I applied simple patch that also checks `.tbd`.

I want to add `.tbd` extension support for configure.


Test script:
---------------
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew update && brew install autoconf pkg-config bison sqlite
./buildconf
env PATH=$(brew --prefix bison)/bin:$PATH ./configure \
  --without-pear \
  --enable-fpm \
  --with-mysqli \
  --with-sqlite3=$(brew --prefix sqlite) \
  --with-pdo-sqlite=$(brew --prefix sqlite) \
  --with-iconv=$(xcrun --show-sdk-path)/usr


Expected result:
----------------
No errors

Actual result:
--------------

Reopening since the fix was only a quickfix for now to be able to test PHP-7.4 and master branches on macos systems. More proper fix is also coming up for PHP-7.2 and above for latest macos systems thanks to https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/3616

@petk: I don't believe we plan to apply that PR. We should only add handling for this in places which have not already been fixed by pkg-config migration.
