makemaker.yaml: use DESTDIR to set the install root

Abderrahim Kitouni requested to merge abderrahim/makemaker into bst-1

Description

When I discovered that we had a makemaker module we were installing manually in GNOME, I tried to use the plugin. There I found that the plugin doesn't use DESTDIR and instead stuffs both %{install-root} and %{prefix} into PREFIX. The comment there links to https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/perl/INSTALL#Installation-Directories which suggests using DESTDIR, so I'm not sure why it is done this way.

Anyway, I don't think this is correct, and I'm proposing to change it.
