package/mutt: specify the mailpath

mutt's ./configure looks for different paths for where to look for
incoming mails.

This is absolutely worng in the case of cross-compilation, because the
path it may find on the host may not exist on the target.

Not only that, but some host may not even have any of the paths
./configure looks for.

Fix that by specifying the mailpath, and set it to the value documented
in the FHS [0]

Since Buildroot only guarantees /tmp to be writable, make /var/mail a
symlink to /tmp .
