package/dropbear: fix generating keys on RO file systems



dropbear generates its keys at the first connection, and wants to save
them in /etc/dropbear (not configurable).

Currently, our /etc/dropbear is a directory.

When the filesystem is read-only, dropbear can't save its keys, so
refuses all connections.

Fix that with:

  - at build time, create /etc/dropbear as a symlink to
    /var/run/dropbear

  - at runtime, if the filesystem is RW (we can rm /etc/dropbear),
    we replace the symlink with an actual directory; otherwise,
    when the filesystem is RO (we can't rm /etc/dropbear), we create
    /var/run/dropbear so the symlink points to an existing directory
