Scripts for building compiz from source

The scripts in this repo are based on the ones from this article:

https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/installing-compiz-reloaded/5875

as well as the original scripts from northfield.ws (http://blog.northfield.ws/category/compiz/)

These scripts are known to work for Ubuntu 18.04 and (according to the article) 19.10 .
