Add make (un)install targets for POSIX systems

ismaell · ismaell · commit da3287c26cc7 · 2020-11-29T21:01:38.000+01:00
The implementation imitates the behavior of build-systems generated by
GNU Automake.

Implemented targets:
- install
- install-strip
- uninstall

Implemented variables:
- DESTDIR
- prefix
- bindir
- INSTALL_STRIP_FLAG

Internal implementation details:

- install-bins variable collects user binaries to be installed
- install-dirs variable collects directories to be created
