Moving shared libs to subdirectory

[Mattia Verga]

Rawtherapee currently ships two unversioned libs under %{_libdir} and I would like to fix that.
Those two libs are only used by Rawtherapee, so I would like to move them under %{_libdir}/rawtherapee. Is it correct to use `-DLIBDIR=%{_libdir}/%{name}` in cmake parameters [1]?
Is that all I need to do, or should I also create and ship a custom ld.so.conf.d file as stated in the Guidelines [2]?

if Rawtherapee links with them, then often the buildsystem can be
modified to build them as static libs instead

Upstream devs have decided to build those libs as static in the next release.
