[Buildroot] [git commit branch/next] package/dropbear: Fix symlink only if pointing to the right directory

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=6dc5c7ffea3c309e3402e6c1e4cab42b8b44f421
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/next

This commit ensures that the /etc/dropbear symlink won't be removed if
it points elsewhere than /var/run/dropbear.

[Thomas:
 - fix indentation / too long lines as suggested by Yann E. Morin.]
