opkg/package/rootfs_ipk: allow overwriting OPKGLIBDIR
Some distributions for various reasons (like for example mounting a tmpfs over /var at runtime) can't use /var/lib to store the opkg metadata, so a different path is required to have a functioning package manager. ${localstatedir} can't be modified to something other than the hardcoded value in bitbake.conf because other recipes depending on it will fail to install. So the only recourse, which is also the least invasive, is to allow distros to overwrite the OPKGLIBDIR variable just like they are also allowed to overwrite OPKGBUILDCMD.
