[OE-core] [PATCH 7/8] busybox: Put klogd/syslogd alternative links in syslog package

Currently these are in ${PN} and ${PN}-syslog may get replaced by
other packages but update-alternatives would error in the postinst
if other files were installed first. Avoid the problems by putting
the links in the correct package.
