install: cleanup properly if the strip program failed for any reason
* src/install.c (strip): Indicate failure with a return code instead
of terminating the program.
(install_file_in_file): Handle strip's return code and unlink the
created file if necessary.
* tests/install/strip-program.sh: Add a test to cover the changes.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the fix.
