commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=6e188927335a04d036766adb4c939b4b5140a810
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

iputils installs several programs that are also implemented as applets
in Busybox. Two of these (arping and tftpd) are installed by iputils
in /bin, while Busybox installs them in /usr/sbin, causing both to be
present if both iputils and busybox are enabled.

This commit moves the binaries installed by iputils to /usr/sbin, so
that only these are installed (Busybox will be installed later thanks
to its optional dependency on iputils, but it will not override the
tools installed by iputils).
