Refactor and simplify install_subdir()

- Pass exclude_files and exclude_directories relative to src_dir,
  same as specified by user and documented in public install_subdir().
- Make do_copydir() interface similar to do_copyfile():
  install src_dir contents to dst_dir.
- Remove src_prefix/src_dir code, it adds confusion and duplicates arguments.
  Use single src_dir parameter instead.
- Make callers specify that src_dir contents should be installed
  under dst_dir/basename(src_dir) if necessary.
- Use os.path.relpath() instead of string manipulations on paths.
- Add documentation to do_copydir(): specify types and add usage example.
