Bug Description
Currently the autotools plugin uses an empty prefix with configuring, and called `make install` with DESTDIR in order to place the files into the .snap. However, not every piece of software will work with this. Some (e.g. PHP7) only work if configured to install into the .snap via the prefix and then simply installed without DESTDIR. The autotools plugin should support this via a config option.

isnt --prefix something you can pass in configflags?
