[Clfs-support] Unfixed issue at dropbear make install

[Angel Ivan Castell Rovira]

Hello Mr. Andrew.

Yes, file {CLFS}/usr/bin/dropbearmulti is successfully created. However,
none of the symlinks (dropbear dbclient dropbearkey dropbearconvert scp)
that should point to the dropbearmulti binary is created. So, you have to
create them by hand. To do it easily, I have modified Makefile to install
everything as 'clfs' user:group, and once it is installed on the
roofs-final, user:group are also changed to root.
