PATCH 1/1 expect: use u-a for mkpasswd

* when busybox is built with CONFIG_CRYPTPW=y, then it will provide alternative for mkpasswd, which will fail in postinst, because mkpasswd from expect wasn't using u-a:
update-alternatives: Error: not linking rootfs/usr/bin/mkpasswd to /bin/busybox.nosuid since rootfs/usr/bin/mkpasswd exists and is not a link
