Check whether magic.h header exists before defining HAVE_MAGIC.

Despite library availability there still can be missing header.
Current test doesn't cover that possibility which will lead compilation
to fail in case of separate sysroot.

Upstream-Status: Accepted [expected in next release after 2.38.1]

Hi Mateusz,

Your commit title should have the recipe this applies to:

util-linux: Improve check for magic in configure.ac

for example.

This is a backport I would say, please use:
Upstream-Status: Backport 
[https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/commit/263381ddd46eea2293c70bc811273b66bc52087b]

I assume the Accepted status would be for projects not using software 
version control (e.g. svn, git) where it's difficult to extract a simple 
patch. What comes to mind is ncurses project for example.

Not a biggie, but having at least the link would be very nice though :)

Cheers,
Quentin
