freetype: fix double installation

Eric_L on IRC reported that the following strange behavior: the first
installation of freetype works, and then each time you do "make
freetype-dirclean freetype", it fails and works alternatively, in a
fully reproducible manner.

After some investigation, it turns out that the problem is caused by
the creation of the symbolic link /usr/include/freetype2/freetype ->
/usr/include/freetype2 for backward compatibility reasons by
freetype.mk, in a post-staging installation hook. As the symbolic link
is created *after* the installation, the first installation works
fine. However, the second installation fails because the freetype
build system does:

 ./builds/unix/mkinstalldirs \
         /home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/target/usr/include/freetype2/config
  [...]
 rm -f /home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/target/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config/*
 rmdir /home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/target/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config
  [...]
 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./builds/unix/ftconfig.h               \
       /home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/target/usr/include/freetype2/config/ftconfig.h

This last line fails, because due to the symbolic link mentioned above, the
command 'rmdir
/home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/target/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config'
has in fact the consequence of deleting the 'config' directory created
by the mkinstalldirs command.

The proposed solution to solve this problem is to remove the symbolic link
in a pre-install hook, run the installation, and restore the symbolic link.
