David A. Wheeler ec361412f3 Support GNU convention variables (prefix, bindir, man1dir) and DESTDIR
- Modify makefile to support GNU convention makefile variable names,
    including prefix, bindir, datarootdir, mandir, and man1dir.
    It is tweaked so that the older variable names (e.g., INSTALL_DIR)
    will continue to work.
  - DESTDIR support added.
  - Predefined a useful INSTALL_PROGRAM makefile variable; that means
    that users can redefine it if they want.
