update-rc.d.bbclass provides default implementations of prerm, postrm,
preinst and postinst. Unfortunately these default implementations don't
deal with package upgrades as well as they could.
For example, if "opkg upgrade" contains init-ifupdown, in the list of
packages to upgrade, the default prerm and preinst scripts will stop
networking while all the packages are being downloaded, unpacked and
installed. Networking is not brought back up again until the postinst
script from the new init-ifupdown package is called. That only happens
after all the packages have been downloaded, unpacked and installed.
This leaves a window where any package that needs to be downloaded after
init-ifupdown was encountered will fail because networking is down.
This patch fixes the problem by delaying the restart of the old service
during an upgrade until postinst. In the case of a package removal, the
service will still be stopped in prerm.
