      bug#37697: make_binary_distribution places files in wrong path
      
      Clarify comments and explain that the alterations to package layout
      by overriding pkg* variables only occurs in official MySQL releases.
      
      Add a new --release argument which will be used by our releases to
      rebuild the two scripts according to our layout, and leave normal
      builds with the hardcoded paths.
      
      Users wishing to use this script in an attempt to create relocatable
      packages will need to either rewrite the scripts themselves using
      the paths they have configured, or use the defaults and override
      --basedir and --datadir when running mysql_install_db, for example
      
        $ make bin-dist
        [ unpack .tar.gz and cd into package directory ]
        $ ./scripts/mysql_install_db --basedir=. --datadir=./data
        $ ./bin/mysqld_safe &
        $ env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./lib/mysql ./bin/mysql
      
      We hope to provide fully relocatable packages in a future release.
