getdeps: allow setting per-project install prefix for DESTDIR installs
Summary: We have a global `--install-prefix` argument that can be used to set the prefix for all projects, but that is only suitable if you are running with sufficient privileges to install each of the deps to that location during the build. Cmake dependency resolution won't work from the build directory in that situation; it can only see the final installed location and it will error out if those files are not present, or link against the currently installed version instead of the version we just built; not great! This commit adds a project specific `--project-install-prefix` that can be used on just the leaf project in a set of deps. That sidesteps the dependency concern because only the last stage is built in that mode. This option can technically be applied to an arbitrary set of projects, but in light of the above, in practice it only makes sense to use it for the final cmake project. Only the CMakeBuilder respects this option. In the watchman repo, this commit adjusts the autogen.sh script to allow specifying the installation prefix; it defaults to `/usr/local` as you might expect. refs: https://github.com/facebook/watchman/issues/760 Reviewed By: yfeldblum Differential Revision: D20674439 fbshipit-source-id: 52799dbd47f3c295e2d6469ee2b74cedeaa20138
