New autoconf variable. On Unix it is identical to privlibdir, on Win32

	* configure.in (privsolibdir): New autoconf variable. On Unix
	it is identical to privlibdir, on Win32 identical to libdir.

	There is no RPATH mechanism in Win32 DLLs or EXEs. The
	intention is that Evolution's private shared libraries will be
	marked in the Makefile.am files as privsolib_LTLIBRARIES. They
	will thus on Windows get installed in libdir. The DLLs will
	actually get installed in bindir, thanks to libtool magic. It
	will thus suffice to have bindir in PATH.

	This also means that we can use gnome_win32_get_prefixes() in
	libeutil to find out the installation location on the end-user
	machine based on the location of the DLL. gnome_win32_get_prefixes()
	assumes the DLL is in a "bin" subfolder of the end-user
	installation prefix.
