Alexander G. M. Smith 3376ed1a72 Package Kit: Proper Installation for First Boot Packages 
Do the final installation operations for all the packages in the
/system/packages directory when the OS is booted for the first time.

This will run their post-install scripts, create users, groups and generate
settings files (marked with a package version attribute).  Previously we just
ran all the shell scripts found in the /system/boot/post-install directory
(don't do that as much now).

Fixes bug #14382

This patch has simpler code flow in CommitTransactionHandler::_ApplyChanges
Tested on 32 and 64 bit systems.  Once it's official, need to remove the
open_ssh redundant post-install script that creates users etc. from HaikuPorts.
Now we can notice bugs like package version attributes on settings files aren't
fully working. :-)

Didn't remove special case for add_catalog_entry_attributes.sh since it
still does stuff that the build system doesn't do.  Might be able to add
that script as part of the Haiku.hpkg.  See change 3751 for removing it,
