fully support out of tree builds
* You no longer have to copy contrib/scintilla, contrib/scinterm and contrib/lexilla
manually to the build directory.
* It turns out, that Scintilla/Lexilla was supporting this since 2016.
Scintilla allows pointing to a source directory (srdir) and Lexilla to a binary directory (DIR_O).
* For Scinterm I opened a pull request in order to add srcdir/basedir variables:
https://github.com/orbitalquark/scinterm/pull/21
* `make distcheck` is therefore now also fixed.
* The FreeBSD package is now allowed to build out of source.
I haven't tested it yet.
* See also https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/issues/266
