BUILD: makefile: fix PCRE overriding specific lib path
PCRE relies on pcre-config binary tool to provide includes/libs paths.
This may generate standard entries such as '/usr/lib' which will
override more specific ones if present before them on the linking step.
This situation was encountered when building with both QuicTLS and PCRE.
This generates a linking error as the default SSL libraries were used
for linking even with correct SSL flags pointing to QuicTLS dirs.
To fix this issue, USE_PCRE and its affiliated options have been moved
at the end of 'use_opts' variable. Indeed, related CFLAGS/LDFLAGS are
concatenated in their order of appearance through the macro
collect_opts_flags (see include/make/options.mk). PCRE in the last
position ensures it won't override specific entries declared before.
