We would create a useless empty directory under build/.
It seems we were lucky and all symlinks were installed into directories
which were alredy created because we installed something into the same
location earlier.
While at it, also add '-v' to 'mkdir -p'. This will print the names of
directories as they are created (just once), making it easier to see all of
what the install script is doing.
Shell scripts should be executable so that meson reports their
invocation succinctly (does not print 'sh' '-e').
Python scripts should not be executable so that meson does the
detection of the right python binary itself.
Add -u everywhere to catch potential errors.
This is the equivalent of $(SYSTEM_UNIT_ALIASES) and $(GENERAL_ALIASES)
in Makefile.am.
ninja-build uninstall does not remove the symlinks, see
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1602.
I don't consider this a blocker: after all either one installs into $DESTDIR,
where uninstallation doesn't make much sense, or into a real system, where a
successfull uninstallation would likely destroy the system.
v2:
- remove bashisms
- add various forgotten symlinks and fix service/timer/target confusions
