[Buildroot] [PATCH] move random-seed from /etc to /var/lib

[Alex Suykov <alex.suykov@gmail.com>]

In case / is mounted read-only, /etc is likely to be read-only
as well, so the seed will not be saved.

Other non-static files (mtab, resolve.conf) have already been moved
out of /etc, random-seed is the only volatile file there at present.
