Install path issue

[peteruithoven]

I build and installed the latest version with the meson build system, doing:

$ meson build --prefix=/usr
$ cd build/
$ ninja
$ sudo ninja install

But I didn't see my changes when I opened the plug in System Settings.

I noticed that the libapplications.so file was installed to /usr/personal:

Installing src/libapplications.so to /usr/personal/libapplications.so

Looking into that I think I was missing the switchboard_dep.get_pkgconfig_variable('plugsdir'), variable. When I build and installed the latest switchboard it's now installed to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/switchboard/personal/.

Maybe we should clarify / define this dependency on a newer version of switchboard?

But the above didn't fix my issue. Looking into /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/switchboard/personal isn't installed in it's own folder, like the other plugs. Notice the new libapplications.so file.
