crontab is meant to be a system user, not a normal user of the system
so lets pass the correct parameters to the system. If we don't do this
it interferes with the setup of normal users, particularly if some
preset list of users is desired.

It is considered good practice to use the build system provided
variables instead of directly specify hardcoded paths.

I've cleaned up some odd license fields, fixed some license
names and corrected some incorrect licenses. LICENSE really needs
a pass through by the maintainers as some of the licensing is
incorrect.
Also, every license with Artistic should be gone through and noted as
which version of Artistic.

Syslog is full with entries like:
/usr/sbin/crond[773]: (CRON) STAT FAILED (/etc/cron.d): No such file or directory
Checking the package yields
Package cronie (1.4.6-r0) is installed on root and has the following files:
/usr/sbin/crond
/etc/init.d/crond
/usr/bin/crontab
/etc/sysconfig/crond
Which is missing most of what do_install_append installs, this commit fixes that

fix [BUGID #673]
several cron related test cases in LTP reveals that our current cron recipe
is not complete:
a) a complete cron hierarchy better have:
/etc/crontab
/etc/cron.d
/etc/cron.hourly
/etc/cron.daily
/etc/cron.weekly
/etc/cron.monthly
b) for a normal user to use crontab command:
add a new group - crontab
/usr/bin/crontab is setgid to root:crontab
/var/spool/cron is owned by root:crontab
below are optional, and thus not included in the default setup:
/etc/cron.deny
/etc/cron.allow
cronie by default only allows root user to use crontab, if neither cron.deny
nor cron.allow exists. They are controlled by final policy deployed on the
product.
