make install overwrites user's local modifications #8

Description

@morgant

While the Makefile has seen improvements lately, one major issue is that make install overwrites the user's ~/.mlvwm/ contents, so any local modifications are lost. Since ~/.mlvwmrc is symlinked to ~/.mlvwm/.mlvwmrc, this means that even some basic settings like preferred theme will be reset. Worse, since "Apple" menu items need to be added to the selected ~/.mlvwm/themes/ file, those items will also be lost.
