Makefile: avoid running curl-config multiple times

If the user hasn't set the CURL_LDFLAGS Makefile variable, we invoke
curl-config like this:

  CURL_LIBCURL += $(shell $(CURL_CONFIG) --libs)

Because the shell function is run when the value is expanded, we invoke
curl-config each time we need to link something (which generally ends up
being four times for a full build).

Instead, let's use an immediate Makefile variable, which only needs
expanding once. We can't combine that with the existing "+=", but since
we only do this when CURL_LDFLAGS is undefined, we can just set that
variable.

That also allows us to simplify our conditional a bit, since both sides
will then put the result into CURL_LIBCURL. While we're touching it,
let's fix the indentation to match the nearby code (we're inside an
outer conditional, so everything else is indented one level).
