Older --enable-binreloc configure option had basically the same purpose
as the newer --enable-relocatable-bundle, though the old binreloc was
only used for gimpenv.c code.
As a consequence, commit 10ce702188 was still not working fine since
gimp_installation_directory_file() also need binreloc enabled (to be
actually relocatable).
Let's get rid of this whole mess, by implying we want binreloc code to
be used when --enable-relocatable-bundle is ON. We don't need the
m4macros anymore, since AM_BINRELOC was basically just checking that
`/proc/self/maps` was present. But anyway being present at compile time
does not mean it will be at runtime (nor the opposite). So this test is
not that useful. The binreloc code will anyway fallback gracefully to
the non-binreloc code (i.e. trying to use build-time install paths) if
the procfs is lacking at runtime.
by removing all but the toplevel prefix getter from gimpreloc.c It was
1) confusing 2) sometimes trying to subsitute the runtime prefix twice
and 3) sometimes ignoring configure-given directories within the
configure-prefix. This should all be fixed now, and done in one less
place.

Added support for binary relocation by means of binreloc, largely
based on a patch by Hongli Lai:
* m4macros/Makefile.am
* m4macros/binreloc.m4: new file providing a macro to check for
binreloc support.
* acinclude.m4
* configure.in: use the macro.
* libgimpbase/Makefile.am
* libgimpbase/gimpreloc.[ch]: new files providing binreloc support
on Linux.
* libgimpbase/gimpenv.[ch]: use binreloc, provide a function to
initialize the environment machinery.
* libgimpbase/gimpbase.def: updated.
* app/Makefile.am: fiddle with the LDFLAGS for binreloc.
* app/main.c (main): gimp_env_init(FALSE).
* libgimp/gimp.c (gimp_main): gimp_env_init(TRUE).
