readutmp: Fix the boot time returned on Minix

[Bruno Haible]

On Minix 3.3, the boot time returned by read_utmp is 1970-01-01 00:00:00.
Two workarounds are possible:
  - Take the time of the "system down" or "run-level m" entry instead,
    like the workaround for Raspbian does.
  - Use the time stamp of the file /var/run/syslogd.pid, like the workarounds
    for Alpine Linux, OpenBSD, Windows.
I'm choosing the first one.

        readutmp: Fix the boot time returned on Minix.
        * lib/readutmp.c (read_utmp_from_file): [__minix] When the time of the
        BOOT_TIME entry is very close to the Epoch, replace it with the time
        from the "run-level m" entry.
