[ebtables PATCH 2/3] Allow customizing lockfile location at configure time

[Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>]

Users may pass LOCKFILE=/some/path/to/file when calling configure to
make libebtc use that path for its lockfile.

To simplify things, drop LOCKDIR completely and instead call dirname()
when trying to create the parent directory.

Given that we always define LOCKFILE via compiler flag, drop the
fallback define from libebtc.c.
