[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/2] package/haveged: Change service file to run early

Drop default dependencies, haveged needs nothing but
local sockets and /dev/random.

The service file now mostly matches the upstream fedora file,
except alot of isolation options have been dropped.
The benefit for a completely controlled system is small,
and those option would pull in dependencies, delaying
entropy being filled up.
