Bug#445848: tomcat5.5: configuration folder permissions

[Javier Serrano Polo]

tag 445848 patch
thanks

This patch adds the "private" subfolder for tomcat-users.xml. The
overall permissions are the standard ones (root.root 644), which means:

      * User instances are better supported (as said before)
      * tomcat55 can't overwrite configuration files

Further remarks:

      * The shutdown string isn't important since jsvc entered.
        server.xml doesn't need protection.
      * Permissions aren't set recursively to 644, thus custom
        configurations aren't overridden.
      * dpkg-statoverride use is based on Debian Policy 10.9.1. Maybe it
        should be used with /var folders too.
      * A directory symlink in postinst is removed. It created a symlink
        inside the pointed directory instead of overwriting the
        directory symlink. Then purging the package didn't delete this
        extra symlink.
