[poky] Inconsistent timestamp use

The Poky root file system (init scripts) has a mechanism for
supporting systems without a working hardware [time of day] clock.
It seems that this has suffered some rot recently and is now
quite inconsistent:
* rootfs_update_timestamp() uses a different format for the time stamp
* the init scripts look for /etc/timestamp2, not /etc/timestamp which
is created with the image
The attached patch makes this consistent and the system clock now works
much better (about as good as a machine without a hardware clock can!)
