(#956 (closed)): Rename rsvg-convert directory to rsvg_convert to avoid clashing with the rsvg-convert binary

When building with autotools and srcdir==builddir, ./target/.../rsvg-convert gets moved into ./rsvg-convert. But since ./rsvg-convert is already a directory, we get an ./rsvg-convert/rsvg-convert binary.

Later, "make install" finds that ./rsvg-convert is a directory, not a file, and fails to install the binary.

Thanks to Abderrahim Kitouni for figuring this out!

Fixes #956 (comment 1739147)
