tmpfiles: copy files to /etc only on boot

We'd copy /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/pam.d/, and /etc/issue (*) on every tmpfiles --create run. I think we should only do this at boot, so if people install systemd.rpm in a larger transaction and want to create those files at a later step, we don't interfere with that. (Stuff like /etc/os-release and /etc/mtab is not really configurable, we might as was create it uncondtionally.) (Seemingly, the alternative approach might be to not call systemd-tmpfiles --create in systemd.rpm %post. But this wouldn't have much effect, because various packages call it anyway, and our %tmpfiles_create_package macro does too. So we need to change the configuration instead.) (*) We don't provide /usr/share/factory/issue, so normally this fails, but somebody else might provide that file, so it seems useful to keep the C line.
