Copied from #7911. There are a few other fixes needed for out-of-tree builds.
- RCC is particularly unhappy with separate paths, so we have a hackish copy in there right now. I'm sure there's a better way.
- We do some leveldb copying at the top-level make that should no longer be necessary.
- Travis and Gitian descriptors should be switched to out-of-tree rather than copying to subtree as they are now

I noticed another small thing: running make check leaves a src/test/__pycache__/bctest.cpython-34.pyc in the source directory instead of the build directory. Not sure whether this is really a problem, but thought to mention it.

@laanwj yes, make distcheck yells about that as well. We'll probably want to move that to the build dir for the sake of purity, or just disable the pycache for tests.

This was done in #8133.
