Yes it is needed at runtime if you are a developper using sqlite3 and

to use `pkg-config sqlite3 --cflags` and `pkg-config sqlite3 --libs` in

It's $APP that needs pkg-config as a build dependency. Sqlite3 does
not need to depend on pkf-config at all; it should install .pc file
and nothing more. Look at lang/gcc, lang/python or devel/pcre: they
all do it this way.
In short, sqlite3 should completely drop the dependency on pkg-config.
I am not trying to state what it should or should not do.
I am trying to guess why it is doing things like it does.
