Installation fails for install paths ending with a "/"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set install path with a slash at the end
2. make && make install
3. likwid-pin will result in an error

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Usual likwid-pin behavior.
Instead, no pinning and error:
~/helper/likwid-2.2> likwid-pin -c0-1 uname
[likwid-pin] Main PID -> core 0 - OK
ERROR: ld.so: object '~/helper/likwid-2.2-inst' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be 
preloaded: ignored.   

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.2, Linux

Please provide any additional information below.

There are two possible solutions, actually only one real solution.

1. Add a comment that trailing slashes are not working
2. Add make magic to remove any trailing slash 

I will probably implement solution 2 for next minor release.
Thanks for the report.

Added abspath function for paths in config.mk. This removes any duplicate 
slashes introduced by trailing slashes in PREFIX.

This change will be part of next minor release.
