Make it possible to give --libdir an absolute path
With this, we introduce the make variable 'libdir', which differs from 'LIBDIR' not only in casing, but also by being the absolute path to the library installation directory. This variable is intentionally compatible with the GNU coding standards. When --libdir is given an absolute path, it is considered as a value according to GNU coding standards, and the variables LIBDIR and libdir will be this: LIBDIR= libdir=/absolute/path When --libdir is given a relative path (just the name of the desired library directory), or not given at all, it is considered as a "traditional" OpenSSL value, and the variables LIBDIR and libdir will be this: LIBDIR=relativepath libdir=$(INSTALLTOP)/$(LIBDIR) Fixes #5398 Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/5446)
