    build: override prefix on all system install locations
    
    Following https://www.bassi.io/articles/2018/03/15/pkg-config-and-paths/,
    this includes dbus service, bash completion, gir and typelib paths.
    
    Unfortunately, the path for systemd user units cannot be overriden, so
    use a path made from our libdir path.
    
    This allows for trouble free builds by just defining prefix. If installing
    onto system paths was desirable on some setups, it might return through a
    -Duse_system_paths boolean build option that disables the overrides, but
    this is a preferrable default.
