- Removed all code from pre- and post- installation PKG scripts.
- This code is not needed and PKG should create destination folder and set correct permissions.
- If for some reason it is not happens, permissions issues should be fixed when jpackage prepares application bundle. PKG should keep all permissions unchanged when packaging and installing bundle.
- pre- and post- installation PKG scripts are kept as empty scripts, so user can override them if needed.
- `INSTALL_LOCATION` and `APP_LOCATION` substitution is removed, since `$1` argument in scripts is same as `INSTALL_LOCATION`.
- I think code in these scripts are some legacy leftovers.
