It looks like you are building a project with Autotools. So you could try:

export PKG_CONFIG=/bin/pkg-config.exe
./configure
./make -j8

See https://autotools.io/pkgconfig/pkg_check_modules.html
MSYS2 is a separate project, so you may have to raise an issue with them. Depending on what you are doing.

No, Vala lives on GNOME's GitLab instance: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vala
This is also linked to from the Vala 'home page': https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala See the section on 
Contributing.
GitHub is just a mirror of the GNOME repositories and is not monitored for issues or pull requests.
