Summary: Allow installation of python bindings to alternate location

Initial Comment:
The cmake installation process fails for users who do not have write access to 
the system-level python package repository (/usr/lib*/python*/dist-packages):

Sample error output:

-- Installing: /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Avogadro.so
CMake Error at libavogadro/src/python/cmake_install.cmake:41 (FILE):
  file INSTALL cannot copy file
  "/home/cjh/local/src/avogadro/build/lib/Avogadro.so" to
  "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Avogadro.so".
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  libavogadro/src/cmake_install.cmake:174 (INCLUDE)
  libavogadro/cmake_install.cmake:37 (INCLUDE)
  cmake_install.cmake:79 (INCLUDE)


make: *** [install] Error 1


It would be nice to have a CMake variable like PYTHONDESTDIR to specify an 
alternate installation prefix.

This installation error occurred with the HEAD of the git repository 
(331b1581e271bfb0ec3e7189bae9bb1350833a38) under Ubuntu 10.04 64bit, python 
2.6.5.
