There are currently three issues with the installation step:
1. it does not ensure the parent destination directory exists before
copying into it, so if /usr/share has not been created in the
dependency chain of edk2-platforms, the installation fails, which
may very well happen easily as edk2-plaforms has nothing in its
dependency chain (except the toolchain et al.);
2. all our dot-stampfiles and .files-list are also copied, as well as
the Readme, license files, and maintainers file. All of those are
useless on the target (and the .files-list introduce
non-reproduciiblity);
3. of a lesser importance, the construct to install, and specifically
to reinstall, does not match what we usually do in Buildroot
(removal of the directory to copy).
We fix all three in one fell swoop:
1. create the destination directory if needed;
2. copy just the directories with the actual platform descriptions
