base-files: Check for /run and /var/lock softlinks on upgrade
Commit ea647cd9eebdc3e3121b84074519c4bb305adac9 moved the locations of /run and /var/lock to match the FHS 3 draft specifications. However, the install doesn't remove the existing directories. As a result, upgrading a system may result in /run as a softlink to /var/run and /var/run as a softlink to /run, creating a circular link. During pre-install, check for the existence of the old softlinks and remove them so the new directories can be installed.
