binary name conflicts with `tcat` from libgsm

See this downstream issue with MacPorts: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/67865
There are a few possible different solutions here:
- simply document the conflict
- add a configure option to install the binary under a different name
- rename the entire project (probably too difficult)
- install to a different location
Whichever of them you think would work best would be fine.

@marcomorain do you still maintain this repository?
@cooljeanius I'm here and active yes.
It's not clear what the problem is with tcat. This seems like an issue with libgsm and MacPorts?

Well, MacPorts was just the package manager I noticed this with; theoretically it would also appear with any other package manager that offers packages for both libgsm and tcat as well. I still think that documenting this conflict in tcat's README, and possibly also mentioning that the TARGET Makefile variable can be overridden to allow installing tcat under a different name, would be helpful.
OK, I opened PR #16 to close this.
