package/skeleton-systemd: host the tmpfiles preparation script

Commit 0d9b84b7a8 (package/systemd: invoke systemd-tmpfilesd on final
image) forcefully introduced a call to systemd-tmpfiles as a per-rootfs
hook, on the premise that would help with read-only rootfs.

However, that did not account for the then-pre-existing handling of /var
as a factory when the user opted not to remount / read-write (by not
setting BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_REMOUNT_ROOTFS_RW).

This means that, for users who want to use a factory for /var, the
generated filesystem contains the factory files twice: once as stored in
the factory, and once as populated by systemd-tmpfilesd.

In the hope to reconcile the two solutions, we move the handling of
calling systemd-tmpfilesd to the skeleton-init-systemd package, where we
already handle the /var factory. Having the two in the same package will
make it easier, in the future, to provide the user with a choice whether
to use one of the other.

Note that it is very important to keep the order of the hooks as they
are.

Indeed, skeleton-init-systemd sorts before systemd, so its hooks were
registered before systemd's hooks; now that we move the CREATE_TMPFILES
hook, we must ensure it is called after the PRE_ROOTFS_VAR one, so that
the behaviour of acting on the var factory remains.

As a final note: we chose the move this way, rather than move the var
factory into the systemd package, because it is more related to the
system integration on the Buildroot side, rather than the integration
of the systemd package in Buildroot.

Similarly, the other four rootfs hooks, SYSTEMD_LOCALE_PURGE_CATALOGS,
SYSTEMD_UPDATE_CATALOGS, SYSTEMD_RM_CATALOG_UPDATE_SERVICE, and
specially SYSTEMD_PRESET_ALL, should also be moved out of the systemd
package, because they too are more related to the Buildroot system,
rather than to the systemd package itself; but the frontier is very
porous in either way, for such a package as special as systemd.
