eudev: Replaces udev with eudev for compatibility when using sysvinit on newer kernels

udev has started to fail on new kernels (4.4), due to being deprecated in favor
of systemd's udev implementation. To maintain a sysvinit alternative we also
need to provide an alternative to udev. Eudev is a fork of systemds udev,
this new eudev recipe provides upstream udev 220 funcitonality.

  - Removes patches that dont apply anymore
  - ToDo: eudev-ptest?
