* fix the path to drift file:
The default path of ntp drift file is /etc/ntp.drift, ntp daemon
maybe fails to create this file since the user ntp is not always
permitted to write /etc.
Refer to other distributions such as RedHat, Debian, just moving
the file to /var/lib/ntp which the home dir of user ntp.
* add tmpfile support:
Make sure the /var/lib/ntp is always created by sysvinit/systemd.

Since ntp.conf is provided by OE in files/ntp.conf, this change should
be made there. Other users may provide their own ntp.conf through a
bbappend and will not want it modified during installation.

ntp.drift is not a tmpfile and should not be considered volatile (its
absence will cause NTP to spend the first 15 minutes estimating local
oscillator characteristics, which is generally not desirable in a time
server). /var/lib is intended for persistent state so putting the
drift file there is perfectly fine, but adding /var/lib/ntp in
tmpfiles/volatiles is incorrect.
Since /var/lib/ntp is the ntp user's home directory, surely it's
created automatically anyway and nothing need be done.
I see that in fact it is not created automatically, even though the user
is created. Ignoring the more fundamental and non-ntp question "why
not?", adding:
install -d ${D}/var/lib/ntp
to do_install_append() should cover it.
