SLAX_EXTDIR should be configurable

[ilovezfs]

See https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/865 for the motivation for this issue.

It would help with the Homebrew formula to have a configure option for the target directory into which juise's libslax extensions are installed (i.e., what is referred to as SLAX_EXTDIR in juise's build system).

Perhaps it could be called --with-libslax-extdir or something similar.

We would then be able to set --with-libslax-extdir="#{lib}/slax/extensions" (i.e., /usr/local/Cellar/juise/0.6.1/lib/slax/extensions) rather than hacking around the sandbox violation.

Currently, in order to restrict juise to its configured prefix, I am having to use the following workaround:

    inreplace "configure",
      "SLAX_EXTDIR=\"`$SLAX_CONFIG --extdir | head -1`\"",
      "SLAX_EXTDIR=\"#{lib}/slax/extensions\""

The reason this is necessary is that make install causes a sandbox violation when it attempts to install juise's slax extensions into slax-config --extdir (https://github.com/Juniper/juise/blob/master/libjuise/Makefile.am#L105-L119), which is outside of juise's prefix.

Here's how the sandbox violation looks:
