Summary: setup/setup is built with insecure RPATH

Initial Comment:
By default, setup/setup doesn't install to system even if WANT_X11 is set to ON in cmake. And since it's not installed, it's left by insecure RPATH in the binary.

I suggest adding some install commands to it... In Gentoo Linux, we install it like following:

- Install setup/setup to /usr/bin/allegro-setup (because setup is too common name)
- Install keyboard.dat, language.dat and setup/setup.dat to /usr/share/allegro
- Install misc/icon.png to /usr/share/pixmaps/allegro.png

And then create a freedesktop.org compatible .desktop entry for it, into /usr/share/applications/allegro-setup.desktop, like this:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Allegro Setup
Type=Application
Exec=allegro-setup
TryExec=allegro-setup
Icon=allegro
Categories=Settings;

As a workaround, because of the missing installation handling, I'm also adding:

--- setup/CMakeLists.txt
+++ setup/CMakeLists.txt
@@ -1,3 +1,5 @@
+set(CMAKE_SKIP_BUILD_RPATH TRUE)
+
 add_our_executable(setup setup.c)
 copy_files(copy_setup_data setup.dat)

above line to setup/CMakeLists.txt, but this should not be required if the CMakeLists.txt is equipped with proper install commands
