VMS: support VERBOSE and V in descrip.mms

With Unixly Makefiles as well as with nmake, make variables are
transferred to the shell running the commands as envinronment
variables. This principle doesn't apply with MMS, so we must
explicitely define VERBOSE as commands when it's needed.

INSTALL_PREFIX is a confusing name, as there's also --prefix.
Instead, tag along with the rest of the open source world and adopt

The Configure option --install_prefix is removed, the only way to
designate a staging directory is with the Makefile variable (this is
also implemented for VMS' descrip.mms et al).
