add_install_script: add skip_if_destdir kwarg
It is common, at least in GNOME projects, to have scripts that must be
run only in the final destination, to update system icon cache, etc.
Skipping them from Meson ensures we can properly log that they have not
been run instead of relying on such scripts to to it (they don't
always).
