[racket] slideshow-latex installation problems

It's tricky to inspect an executable and/or track timestamps to figure
out whether an executable needs to be rebuilt. I'm sure it could be
made to work, but meanwhile, I've changed `raco setup' and package
manager to address the problem in a more general way.

The package manager now more specifically tells `raco setup' to avoid
installation-wide files when installing in a user-specific scope, and
`raco setup' now more fully accommodates that request.
