applets_sh/README says:
So far these scripts are not hooked to the build system and are not
installed by "make install".
The qualification 'so far' seems to suggest an intent to hook them up at
some time in the future.
My original patches didn't include any applets: it was Denys who 'hooked
up' nologin.

In the lastest patch series (and also my original patches) the embed
directory is in .gitignore. BusyBox wouldn't ship with it.
