fix: installation without sudo (#8715)
* fix: installation without sudo

I think it's good practice that users don't need to run `sudo`
to install something just to try it out. With this change, the
local bin directory is tried first, which usually is also in the
`PATH`. This way the installation script can be run without
`sudo` and should still work.

* fix: try local path last and support spaces in $HOME

Try the `$HOME/.local/bin` path last, so that the script is backwards
compatible. Also make sure that it works even if there are spaces in
the directory set by `$HOME`.

To install it, move the binary somewhere in your $PATH:

sudo mv ipfs /usr/local/bin/ipfs

Or run sudo ./install.sh which does this for you.
