[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/2] coreutils: fix chroot installation

Since commit 256bb383fb7 (coreutils: use single binary in symlink
method) the chroot move command creates a dangling symlink, because the
symlink target is 'coreutils' which is not in the /usr/sbin/ directory.
Instead of moving, remove the coreutils installed symlink, and create a
new one in $(TARGET_DIR)/usr/sbin with the correct target.

Should also fix (busybox):
