I am pretty sure that systemd upstream shouldn't create the link, but
I'd expect that the systemd RPM postinst scriplet would create it, if
/etc/resolv.conf doesn't exist yet.

I mean, this is really something where distros should decide what they
want, but we shouldn't push them too hard by encoding something in "make
install", since this is compat stuff...
