Should provide distutils/setuptools style --root change functionality handy for cross compilation.

The logic here is a bit fragile and this issue has already been extensively discussed, see #58. #66 implements it as a destdir option, aligning the naming with common practices and other installation systems (autotools, cmake, meson, etc.).
