waf_generator: Copy headers if necessary.

There are some cases, where a header is installed into a directory with
a different name then it's source directory. In that case, the build
might fail because the header is not found. One example would be the
<openssl/opensslv.h>. The source for this file is in
freebsd/crypto/openssl/crypto/opensslv.h.

To allow the build to work in such cases too, copy such files into a
temporary location in the build tree.
