To make sure zimg is working, it would be useful to be able to run the test app on the target. Currently, however, it is not installed. This patch renames it and adds an option to install it.
Like the previous patch that installs the test app, this commit renames and gives an option to install the examples so they can be tested on the target.
When cross compiling, it may be useful to install the tests rather than run them. This gives an option to do that.

When cross-compiling for an embedded target, it may be useful to run the tests and examples on the target device, to verify the library is working before doing any further integration.
This commit series makes it possible to do this, by adding some extra configure arguments. It also adds a
zimg_prefix to the executables, so they are not ambiguous once installed.I'm open to suggestions on naming if you think there are better names, but I think this is a useful thing to be able to do.
