use GNUInstallDirs where possible

Emulate the CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_* variables on non-Unix systems and
disable redefining FHS-mandated install locations via user-editable
ASSIMP_*_INSTALL_DIR variables. Instead, if it REALLY proves necessary,
Unix users can edit the advanced, canonical CMAKE_INSTALL_* variables.
