package/openvmtools: move files up from unnecessary subdirectory

The Open-vm-tools package is now distributed from GitHub and a new subdirectory was introduced, which breaks the Buildroot process.

This patch moves everything up from the new subdirectory after extraction, making Buildroot once again able to run.

Fixes:

Dear Karoly Kasza,

Or you could use:

OPENVMTOOLS_SUBDIR = open-vm-tools

Hi Thomas,

I did not know there is such an option.
Which one solution does the BR community prefer?

Hi,

Also, I assume this variable only tells the build system where to start configure/make etc,
so all patches also has to be modified, am I right?
