Set sysconfdir to /etc only if prefix is /usr
PR #2855 basically hardcodes the config file path to /etc, which is a problem on e.g. FreeBSD, where the expected path for config files of non-base software is '/usr/local/etc'. Meson sets sysconfdir to '/etc' explicitly only when prefix is '/usr', so it is still possible to use '/usr/local' as prefix, and install the config files under '/usr/local/etc'. This commit allows to do that by setting sysconfdir based on the value of prefix.
