[PATCH] oe-core: Fix base-files wrong softlink of /var/run and /var/lock

[fupan.li]

From: fli <fupan.li@windriver.com>

OE-CORE's fs-perms.txt force /var/run to link /run and
/var/lock to /run/lock, so in order to match with it,
make base-files /var/run and /var/lock link the absolute
path too.

You really need to explain what the issue you're solving is here. You
appear to be replacing two relative paths with absolute paths? Why does
this matter?

Cheers,

when base-files linked /var/run to relative path of ../run
  and other packages linked /var/run to absolute path of /run by
OE-CORE's fs-perms.txt processing, this will cause two rpm packages
installed two the same name file but they are different , which will
cause files confliction.
