documentation installed in wrong directory

[Bruno Haible]

Hi,

I installed cgicc-3.2.7 using the commands
  ./configure --prefix=/packages/gnu
  make
  make install
and the documentation was installed in directory /packages/gnu/doc/cgicc-3.2.7.
This location for documentation is deprecated for years: both the GNU standards
  http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Directory-Variables.html
and the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard)
  http://www.pathname.com/fhs/
specify that it should go under /packages/gnu/share/doc/.

The fix is as follows. Using @docdir@ not only causes the doc to be installed
under $prefix/share/doc/, it also takes into account the --docdir
option that the user may have provided at configuration time.
