[BusyBox] busybox hostname

[Orion Poplawski]

busybox 0.47 hostname is incompatible with lrp 2.9.8's /etc/init.d/hostname
which uses the --file option.  Below are some patches to add the --file
option to busybox.  There doesn't appear to be a consistent method of
argument handling, so this is just what I came up with.

Other option is to use the -F option in /etc/init.d/hostname.

Finally, busybox doesn't have "dnsdomainname -> hostname -d", but it doesn't
look like LRP uses it (though it does have the link).

Hope someone finds this usefull.
