skeleton: fix absence of /dev/shm on static, read-only systems
/dev/shm is needed for systems using shared memory. On init-based systems this directory is usually created in the inittab along with /dev/pts, by the lines: package/busybox/inittab: ::sysinit:/bin/mkdir -p /dev/pts ::sysinit:/bin/mkdir -p /dev/shm package/sysvinit/inittab: si2::sysinit:/bin/mkdir -p /dev/pts si3::sysinit:/bin/mkdir -p /dev/shm However this is broken when static /dev management is selected and the root filesystem is read-only, showing during boot the error: mkdir: can't create directory '/dev/shm': Read-only file system Fix it by creating the empty /dev/shm directory, just like /dev/pts.
