I propose to change BackupPC V4 directories layout to better conform the 
Filesystem Hierarchy Standard.

- move documentation from $Conf{InstallDir}/doc to 
$Conf{InstallDir}/share/doc/BackupPC;

Reason to install documentation in share/doc/BackupPC instead of share/doc:
config.pl tries to change owner of the doc directory which in some 
circumstances is a system doc directory (e.g. --install-dir /usr/local).

- move BackupPC.pid, BackupPC.sock and LOCK from /var/log/BackupPC to 
/var/run/BackupPC;
- move status.pl and UserEmailInfo.pl from /var/log/BackupPC to $Conf{TopDir};
pool.rrd also place in $Conf{TopDir}

- add --doc-dir and --run-dir options to configure.pl
