chkconfig: remove link for update-alternatives to disambiguate

[YOCTO #936]
"update-alternatives" installed: one in /usr/sbin from chkconfig \
(symlinked to "alternatives"), and the other in /usr/bin \
from update-alternatives-cworth.
It appears for whatever reason that the one from chkconfig is run \
during postinst processing but if you run the script from the command \
line it gets the other one.
this is due to differences in the PATH environment variable.

The following is the sequence to call scripts after kernel booting
inittab
  -->rcS
     -->./S40networking(PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)
     -->S98configure(call rpm-postinstall)
        #"/usr/sbin" is found prior to "/usr/bin", so update-alternatives from chkconfig is run in this script
  -->rc5.d
  -->profile(profile:4:PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin" profile:15: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin)
  #"/usr/bin/" is found prior to "/usr/sbin", so update-alternatives from update-alternatives-cworth is run in this script

So I remove the symlink (update-alternatives linked to chkconfig). The one from update-alternatives-cworth is left alone.
