History
Paolo Bonzini 655e2a778d meson, cutils: allow non-relocatable installs 
Say QEMU is configured with bindir = "/usr/bin" and a firmware path
that starts with "/usr/share/qemu".  Ever since QEMU 5.2, QEMU's
install has been relocatable: if you move qemu-system-x86_64 from
/usr/bin to /home/username/bin, it will start looking for firmware in
/home/username/share/qemu.  Previously, you would get a non-relocatable
install where the moved QEMU will keep looking for firmware in
/usr/share/qemu.

Windows almost always wants relocatable installs, and in fact that
is why QEMU 5.2 introduced relocatability in the first place.
However, newfangled distribution mechanisms such as AppImage
(https://docs.appimage.org/reference/best-practices.html), and
possibly NixOS, also dislike using at runtime the absolute paths
that were established at build time.

On POSIX systems you almost never care; if you do, your usecase
dictates which one is desirable, so there's no single answer.
Obviously relocatability works fine most of the time, because not many
people have complained about QEMU's switch to relocatable install,
and that's why until now there was no way to disable relocatability.

But a non-relocatable, non-modular binary can help if you want to do
experiments with old firmware and new QEMU or vice versa (because you
can just upgrade/downgrade the firmware package, and use rpm2cpio or
similar to extract the QEMU binaries outside /usr), so allow both.
This patch allows one to build a non-relocatable install using a new
option to configure.  Why?  Because it's not too hard, and because
it helps the user double check the relocatability of their install.

Note that the same code that handles relocation also lets you run QEMU
from the build tree and pick e.g. firmware files from the source tree
transparently.  Therefore that part remains active with this patch,
even if you configure with --disable-relocatable.
