-D option isn't present on BSD `install`, causing bpkg install to fail on some systems

BSD install doesn't have the -D option, which causes installation to fail on systems that use this version of install.

My (probably incomplete) understanding is that this can be resolved by splitting this into a mkdir -p followed by install sans the -D option, but I don't know if there is a better way that works with the bpkg 'install' field.

For reference, the relevant install command: https://github.com/ryanmjacobs/c/blob/master/package.json#L6

@alphabetum Thanks! I took your suggestion of using mkdir -p, but I don't know if I need to bump the version number in order for bpkg to see it.

It now installs properly. Thank you!

Sweet! I'll close this issue now.
