netcdf may be built with either cmake or autotools. as it turns out the
autotools install will not have a cmake config, so finding it exclusively
via the config is not possible.
instead use a finder which wraps a find_package(config) call and fall
back to manual finding iff the config isn't found.
the finder defines the same target as the config would, making them
interchangeable.

Is it possible to detect the version of NetCDF found? If i recall correctly i have already seen cmake modules that are able to get the NetCDF library version.
Certainly. Do we need it for something? We could just use the version from the package-config file and forward it out of the finder as a very simple way to get the version.
It's good to know which version is used (if you have several versions or do not know the system LP is compiled on). Sometimes we get error messages depending on the version of netcdf (or any other library) used.
If the pc-file is reliable (and always available) that would be a good idea.
.pc should be always available, if it turns out that assumption is wrong we can always throw more detection code at it :)
