This will benefit projects such as GNOME Recipes that prefer using
submodules over wraps because it's easier to maintain since git is
aware of it, and because it integrates with their existing
workflow. Without this, these projects have to manually initialize
the submodules which is completely unnecessary.

The same substitutions and rules as custom_target().
Also generally fix it to actually work when run in a subdir and with
anything other than absolute paths for input and output files.
We now also log a message when configuring files.
Includes tests for all this.
Otherwise env is {} and we get a traceback trying to use the setup:

There is no harm in doing this, and this is the simplest fix for this.

Ever since we changed how we do library searching, the full path to the
library has not been available under `.fullpath`. This has been broken
for at least a year...
And actually test that prog.path() works. The earlier test was just
running the command without checking if it succeeded.
Also make everything use prog.get_command() or get_path() instead of
accessing the internal member prog.fullpath directly.
With the 'install_mode' kwarg, you can now specify the file and
directory permissions and the owner and the group to be used while
installing. You can pass either:
* A single string specifying just the permissions
* A list of strings with:
- The first argument a string of permissions
- The second argument a string specifying the owner or
an int specifying the uid
- The third argument a string specifying the group or
an int specifying the gid
Specifying `false` as any of the arguments skips setting that one.
The format of the permissions kwarg is the same as the symbolic
notation used by ls -l with the first character that specifies 'd',
'-', 'c', etc for the file type omitted since that is always obvious
from the context.
Includes unit tests for the same. Sadly these only run on Linux right
now, but we want them to run on all platforms. We do set the mode in the
integration tests for all platforms but we don't check if they were
actually set correctly.
Cache the absolute dir that the script is searched in and the name of
the script. These are the only two things that change.
Update the test to test for both #1235 and the case when a script of the
same name is in a different directory (which also covers the subproject
case).
Closes#1235
