build: use TARNAME instead of NAME for paths
PACKAGE_TARNAME is the same as PACKAGE_NAME but normalized, so it should
be safer to use in paths. For example, on a downstream project, if
spaces or shell metacharacters are added to the package name, a path
that uses PACKAGE_TARNAME should keep working.
From the manual of GNU Autoconf (version 2.69):
> -- Macro: AC_INIT (PACKAGE, VERSION, [BUG-REPORT], [TARNAME], [URL])
> Process any command-line arguments and perform initialization and
> verification.
>
> Set the name of the PACKAGE and its VERSION. These are typically
> used in '--version' support, including that of 'configure'. The
> optional argument BUG-REPORT should be the email to which users
> should send bug reports. The package TARNAME differs from
> PACKAGE: the latter designates the full package name (e.g., 'GNU
> Autoconf'), while the former is meant for distribution tar ball
> names (e.g., 'autoconf'). It defaults to PACKAGE with 'GNU '
> stripped, lower-cased, and all characters other than
> alphanumerics and underscores are changed to '-'.
Note also that by default (on autoconf v2.69), `docdir=@docdir@` in
config.mk.in expands to the following in config.mk:
docdir=${datarootdir}/doc/${PACKAGE_TARNAME}
