separate build and install steps

[pmichaud]

I think part of the problem is that we can't (yet) reliably compile modules from the build version of Rakudo... you have to have an installed version of Rakudo first.

Much of this will probably change as we move from a "precompiled module" approach to a "cache compiled modules" approach, but for the time being I think we're stuck with the current process.

If someone wants to adjust the make targets along the lines of what @coke suggests, I'm all for it if it doesn't make the Makefile too complex to maintain.

The current iteration of Rakudo Star allows installation of Raku and the bundled modules separately. If I understood the issue reported here correctly, that should solve it. If I misunderstood, feel free to re-open this issue.
