libevent2022: only configure if event:external fails

We know that event:external will be configured first (because of its
priority).  Take advantage of that here in libevent2022 by having it
refuse to configure / politely fail if event:external succeeded.

Also print out some additional lines in configure output indicating
what is going on (i.e., event:external succeeded, so this component
will be skipped, or event:external failed, so this component will be
used).
