pkg-config based project don't work with kde-neon extension
Metadata
Current evaluation
kde-neon extension no longer sets PKG_CONFIG_PATH after PR #4242, so pkg-config-based builds can't find Qt5 .pc files from the kde-neon-sdk snap. No maintainer response, no labels, 0 comments, last activity 536 days ago.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue has no labels, no assignee, and zero maintainer comments — it shows no sign of having been triaged. The bug is real and well-documented: PR #4242 (commit cfacbc54b) removed PKG_CONFIG_PATH from the kde-neon extension, and the .pc files in the kde-neon-sdk snap have incorrect prefixes (pointing to /build/snapcraft-.../stage/usr instead of /snap/kf5-...-sdk/current/usr), so even restoring PKG_CONFIG_PATH would not fully fix the problem. The root cause is in the SDK snap packaging, not snapcraft itself, which adds complexity. The issue is 936 days old with no activity in 536 days, but the kde-neon extension is still actively maintained (kde-neon-6 added, core24 support), so it is not clearly obsolete.

Issue body
### Bug Description
since https://github.com/snapcore/snapcraft/pull/4242 PKG_CONFIG_PATH is no longer provided for kde-neon, this means that project using pkg-config to get their dependencies won't be able to get them from the kde-neon-sdk image. While kf5 libraries don't supply .pc files, kde-neon is the recommended way to build qt5 application which provides such files.
https://github.com/snapcore/snapcraft/pull/4242 only work around the issue as most kde application uses CMake. the root cause is that the installation prefix is incorrect in the provided .pc
for instance
```
head -n 1 /snap/kf5-5-108-qt-5-15-10-core22-sdk/current/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/Qt5Core.pc
prefix=/build/snapcraft-kf5-5-108-qt-5-15-10-core22-sdk-eb909be8ec5bfbbae4a03c09e3a7bdd2/stage/usr
```
note that the gnome plugin (gnome-42-2204-sdk) doesn't have this issue:
```
head -n 1 /snap/gnome-42-2204-sdk/current/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/gtk4.pc
prefix=/snap/gnome-42-2204-sdk/current/usr
```
### To Reproduce
run `snapcraft build` with the supplied snapcraft.yaml
### Environment
the issue has been experience in `destructive-mode` as qt5 packages may not be installed on the host, but the sample `snapcraft.yaml` demonstrate the issue in other (LXD) environment.
Snapcraft: 8.0.2
system host: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
