update requested, tested, and ok by rsadowski@
rsadowski@ helped with WANTLIB update, cmake options, and vulkan-hpp patch
also tested by me briefly including in-game gameplay without issues.
note on my testing OpenGL backend is still the default on amd64 with intel
GPU. I can't find documentation on a switch to enable Vulkan backend yet.
Best place to view changelogs is the Hard Light fs2open forums:

Upstream isn't packaging source tarballs anymore, so now using GH with
the cmake module and librocket pulled in additionally similar to what
emulators/ppsspp and other ports do.
Add an upstream fix for big endian archs, and ONLY_FOR_ARCHS to limit the build
to architectures with (required) OpenGL>=3.2 hardware acceleration, excepted
powerpc64, that is capable but has no drm(4) support for now.
Runtime tested by and OK thfr@ (maintainer)
