[PATCH] doc: prefer installing using meson rather than ninja

[Bruce Richardson]

After doing a build, to install DPDK system-wide our documentation
recommended using the "ninja install" command. However, for anyone
building as a non-root user and only installing as root, the "meson
install" command is a better alternative, as it provides for
automatically dropping or elevating privileges as necessary in more
recent meson releases [1].

 the root directory for the install, for example when packaging.
