initscripts: fix incompatibility with read-only-rootfs

When the read-only-rootfs feature (in IMAGE_FEATURES) is enabled, the
populate-volatile.sh script runs at build time. This compensates for the
fact that certain essential directories and files cannot be created at
runtime, since the root filesystem is read-only. This is handled in
oe-core's rootfs-postcommands.bbclass, in read_only_rootfs_hook.

However, initscripts-1.0_selinux.inc appends some shell code to
populate-volatile.sh considering it will be run in the target, not on
the host machine. So, if one uses both read-only-rootfs and selinux (in
DISTRO_FEATURES), the recursive call to restorecon is run in the host
machine, since populate-volatile.sh is called in build time. This leads
to errors such as:

| NOTE: Executing read_only_rootfs_hook ...
| DEBUG: Executing shell function read_only_rootfs_hook
| /sbin/restorecon: Could not read /var/lib/AccountsService/users: Permission denied.
| /sbin/restorecon: Could not read /var/lib/NetworkManager: Permission denied.
| /sbin/restorecon: Could not read /var/lib/bluetooth: Permission denied.
| /sbin/restorecon: Could not read /var/lib/chrony: Permission denied.

As a matter of fact, this scenario is a fair reminder not to call
bitbake with sudo.

This change makes sure the append is only performed if the
read-only-rootfs feature is not used.
