yum-minimal: pre-install base packages

We were getting some subtle issues in fedora-minimal builds that
turned out to be because /var/run was not a symlink to /run.

Upon further investigation, it turns out that yum is creating a
/var/run directory for it's pid file when it starts working in the
empty chroot (which I verified by stracing it)

---
5905  stat("/home/ubuntu/tmp/dib-tmp/image.Ac4VZZsl/mnt/var/run", 0x7ffddffa0330) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
5905  mkdir("/home/ubuntu/tmp/dib-tmp/image.Ac4VZZsl/mnt/var/run", 0755) = 0
5905  open("/home/ubuntu/tmp/dib-tmp/image.Ac4VZZsl/mnt/var/run/yum.pid", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0644) = 6
---

Because this happens *before* we install "filesystem" (the package),
we mess up it's symlinking.

To work-around this, pre-install the trio of base packages (setup,
basesystem, filesystem) with rpm from outside the chroot.
