[Distutils] Adding --compiler pass-through option to install

Wouldn't it make sense to add a --compiler pass-through option
to the install command ?

That way, users having non-default compiler setups will be able
to install distutils packages using one command only:

python setup.py install --compiler mycompiler

instead of having to run

python setup.py build --compiler mycompiler
python setup.py install

--
