rootfs_rpm.bbclass: Add Dirnames configuration

[BUGID #327]

RPM attempts to validate all of the directories on the system are
owned by a package.  While the root "/" directory was not owned, so
in some cases an error could be thrown.  Resolve this by informing
RPM that yes, "/" is in fact a directory on the system that was
properly constructed and is "owned".
