Ninja is a very thin build engine; it doesn't really control build-specific options like this. You could try asking on the libnice or Meson mailing lists.

To clarify: in makefiles DESTDIR is usually set (or can be overridden) by setting respective environment variable when you call make. To the contrary, ninja files don't interpret environment variables at all (by design), so DESTDIR customization has to be made on higher level, i.e. by program generating ninja files.
