Bug#941440: wxMaxima Pandoc problem



wxMaxima FTBFS's for me with
$ pdf-engine /usr/bin/xelatex not known

I see that the 19.10.0 Debian package builds now by skipping the PDF manual 
when it can't be built. I think I've found the root of the problem with 
Pandoc.

It turns out this is a regression that's been there for ages and fixed in 
Pandoc 2.2.2 [1], just shy of the 2.2.1 version in Buster. wxMaxima doesn't 
build-dep on Pandoc and I'm building in a non-clean environment, but perhaps 
the following check done by CMake should be made aware of the Pandoc bug in 
the upstream part of wxMaxima by bumping the version:
-- pandoc version >= 2 found - using option --pdf-engine
