`startx` run on a system based on the demo systemd image [1] and `opkg`-installed packages fails with the following error.

	/usr/bin/startx: line 139: /OE/tentacle/build/tmp-angstrom_2010_x/sysroots/x68_64-linux/usr/bin/mcookie: No such file or directory

            xinit: Fix mcookie / util-linux-ng dependency
        
            xinit just needs to know the runtime path of mcookie so we need to
            RDEPEND on util-linux-ng and pass the runtime path in via EXTRA_OECONF

1. Please note that I did neither build nor run tested this patch and
just noticed the error trying the demo image.
2. Koen mentioned something on IRC wanting to get rid of `startx`
entirely. But this patch should be applied nevertheless.

v2: move `RDEPENDS` further down as suggested by Koen
