Cache the scripts used for postconf and install phases

Cache the absolute dir that the script is searched in and the name of
the script. These are the only two things that change.

Update the test to test for both #1235 and the case when a script of the
same name is in a different directory (which also covers the subproject
case).

Closes #1235
