Apparently, when opkg/dpkg and run-postinsts are installed in the same
time, opkg/dpkg postinstall overwrites the run-postinsts link in rcS.d.
This will make run-postinsts script useless and the delayed postinstalls
will not be run.
This issue happens only when 'package-management' is disabled and, in
the same time, dpkg/opkg ends up in the image: either pulled by some
dependency or manually installed.
With this patch, both opkg/dpkg and run-postinsts scripts will run but
the former will silently fail because the package metadata is removed from
the image since 'pacakge-management' is disabled.

This recipe is used only when the package manager is not deployed on
target and there still are delayed postinstalls that need to be run on
target. At the moment, run-postinsts is targeted to dpkg/opkg. RPM uses another
recipe, called rpm-postinsts which, in turn, is used even when the rpm
package is deployed.
This patch intends to make run-postinsts generic and deprecate
rpm-postinsts. Here's why:
* when opkg/dpkg are not deplyed, the meta-data files are useless.
Hence, the awk script is not needed. The postinstall files are already
saved in /etc/(deb|ipk)-postinsts directory and we can use the same
procedure as in rpm's case;
Also, the recipe is moved out from meta/recipes-devel/dpkg to
meta/recipes-devel/run-postinsts.
