Update sys-apps/coreutils and make sure they have split-usr disabled for generic images#829
Conversation
We don't want to have separate /bin, /lib, /usr/bin and /usr/lib directories. The former two are meant to be symlinks to the latter two. The `split-usr` USE flag gets enabled with the profiles update in portage-stable, so before doing the update, clear the flag in the overlay. This is not done for SDK images, since they seem to have split /usr on purpose.

This updates coreutils and disables
split-usrUSE flag for the package, for systemd and gshadow. The explicit disabling doesn't have a visible effect, as thesplit-usrUSE flag was disabled somehow, but this will be needed when we update the profiles inportage-stable, where they explicitly enablesplit-usrfor some backward compatibility or something.I did the update of coreutils during the work on updating portage, as the package was failing to build. In the end, the update was likely not necessary, but rather had to disable the USE flag. But well, I spent some effort on updating it and there is one package less to update.
I had to move the package to overlay, because I had to remove a mention of python3.8, which we don't yet package. When we update python3, this can go back to portage-stable.
Needs to be merged together with PR in portage stable: flatcar-archive/portage-stable#143
