You can't install applets alone. Its one package "busybox" with enabled or
disabled functionality.
is there a way the define a global var "SWAPUTILS" which can point

There already is a package which has needed tools - PACKAGE_swap-utils
(utilities -> disck -> swap-utils)
Just use DEPENDS which Stefan proposed. They will do the trick:
DEPENDS:=+kmod-lib-lzo +kmod-zsmalloc \
+!BUSYBOX_CONFIG_MKSWAP:swap-utils \
+!BUSYBOX_CONFIG_SWAPONOFF:swap-utils
You can manually select busybox applets when building your own image, and
for people using prebuild images (without busybox applets enabled) opkg
will install swap-utils instead.
