Meson uses relative paths based off the file location "$ORIGIN" as you see
above. This avoids having a user's home path in the search directories.

However, meson also adjusts the rpath on install, so if you run
test-meson-builds.sh and check the rpath on
build-x64-default/app/dpdk-testpmd and compare against
build-x86-default/install-root/usr/local/bin/dpdk-testpmd you'll see they
are different, with the latter having the final install path encoded in it.
If we do want to control these, they can be set for binaries using the
"build_rpath" and "install_rpath" parameters, though I think the current
values are ok.
