minidlna uses UUID to uniquely identify the media server
by default, if the "uuid" option is not specified in
its setting file it will try to autogenerate it by
reading MAC address.
This seems to fail on some devices resulting in random
UUID on reboot, and this causes confusion and issues as
for clients this is a new server and must be added to
the list.
In OpenWrt there are also devices where the system can't
read the true MAC address and it is therefore randomized
on reboot.
So, add a static UUID in the settings file.
Since each mindlna server should have a different UUID,
if the user has more than one OpenWrt device with
minidlna, he should change the UUID of the
additional devices.

- run as an unprivileged user by default
- move generated config to /var/run (/tmp/run in fact)
- disable service until it's configured: there is no way to reliably guess
where files to be shared are located

Some users might create a minidlna root with symlinks
to shared locations. While this could potentially create
a vulnerability, the option should be available to allow
users to do this should they choose to.
