Changes the install location back to /usr/share/nagios/libexec

- Putting it in /usr/lib/monitoring-plugins would require patching (not
  setting a config flag). Users are better off setting $USER1$ in the
  /etc/nagios/resource.cfg file to point to /usr/lib/monitoring-plugins
  rather than monkeying with symlinks.
- This requires changing $USER1$/check_nrpe in the
  /etc/nagios/objects/commands.cfg file, to
  /usr/share/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe.
