Install script installs docs without -version suffix

This is potentially bad when multiple GHC versions are installed - last installed one overwrites all the docs.

It seems like docs are installed under $PACKAGE_TARNAME, and tarname is initialized as "ghc" in the ac file. I guess one solution would be to add version suffix to tarname (it seems like tarname is only used when installing docs) or alternatively use ${PACKAGE_TARNAME}-${PACKAGE_VERSION} to install docs.
