Traditionally Configure passed $ENV{PERL} to Makefile. But this
resulted in ambiguilty as Configure script could be executed by
interpreter different from one executing remaining scripts. Since
we separate compile- and run-time interpreters with HASHBANGPERL
variable, there is no reason to segment the build procedure.

I bug in perl's File::Spec->canonpath() was uncovered. There's
nothing we can do about it (except re-implementing canonpath()),
except working around the problem (a directory rename) and reporting
the issue to the perl module developers.

The diverse notations used in INSTALL are not as self explanatory as
we might imagine, so let's attempt a consistent notation for mandatory
and optional pieces of a command line, and to explain the meaning of
each notation.
This does away with the bash notation used in one spot, as it isn't
universally understood and will only confuse the unknowing more.

Make it possible to have a separate and different perl command string
for installable scripts than we use when building, with the
environment variable HASHBANGPERL. Its value default to the same as
the environment PERL if it's defined, otherwise '/usr/bin/env perl'.
Note: this is only relevant for Unix-like environments.

With Unixly Makefiles as well as with nmake, make variables are
transferred to the shell running the commands as envinronment
variables. This principle doesn't apply with MMS, so we must
explicitely define VERBOSE as commands when it's needed.

On Windows, we set INSTALLTOP to default as follows:

PREFIX: %ProgramFiles(x86)%\OpenSSL
OPENSSLDIR: %CommonProgramFiles(x86)%\SSL
VC-WIN64*:
PREFIX: %ProgramW6432%\OpenSSL

Should those environment variables be missing, the following is used
as fallback:

Because of the unified scheme, building on different platforms is very
similar. We currently have Unix and OpenVMS on the unified scheme,
which means that a separate INSTALL.VMS is no longer needed.

INSTALL_PREFIX is a confusing name, as there's also --prefix.
Instead, tag along with the rest of the open source world and adopt
the Makefile variable DESTDIR to designate the desired staging
directory.
The Configure option --install_prefix is removed, the only way to
designate a staging directory is with the Makefile variable (this is
also implemented for VMS' descrip.mms et al).
