build: use --runstatedir instead of --localstatedir
The util-linux code was previously aligned to use @localstatedir@ and
the util-linux build system was set to override the default to use /run.
Current GNU Coding Standards introduced the @runstatedir@ variable
for this purpose. Lets use that instead.
The GNU default for @runstatedir@ is ${localstatedir}/run so util-linux
still override the default to be /run to preserve the status quo from
before. The only difference is that you'll now pass --runstatedir to
override the location on the command line instead of --localstatedir.
(FWIW, Debhelper in compat 11 will automatically start passing
--runstatedir=/run to all autotools configured builds. It already
passes --localstatedir=/var (to avoid it ending up with the GNU default
/usr/local/var) which breaks the util-linux build system code that
tries to default it to /run. This change will thus allow util-linux
and debhelper to work better together and avoid the need for a
package-specific override.)
