debian/rules: revert nslcd socket location to /var/run/nslcd/. Both nslcd
and slapd nssov overlay will create the directory if it doesn't exist.

10. By Mathias Gug on 2009-08-13

* Split nslcd daemon in its own package:
  + create new nslcd package.
  + split nscld configuration logic in its own maintainer scripts.
  + move nslcd socket from /var/run/nslcd/ to /var/run/ as it's used by
    the nss library to connect to the server (which can be nslcd or slapd).
* debian/control: drop nscd, libpam-ldap from a Recommends to a Suggests to
  not install them by default since slapd with the nssov overlay will be
  the suggested option for local caching.
