[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#548877: bootclean.sh: Let user specify exceptions.

[Bug Filler]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.87dsf-6
Severity: wishlist

I put some not so tmp file to /tmp for a while. Current bootclean
cleanup all my /tmp on a reboot, intensionally or not.

Attached patch adds a ${BOOT_CLEAN_EXCEPT} to the exception rule so that
I can specify my own exception rules in the /etc/default/rcS file. Like
exclude a path of /tmp/longer.
