Bug#987129: sysvinit should Build-Depends: libxcrypt-dev explicitly

sysvinit links -lcrypt for sulogin. As such it now needs libxcrypt-dev.
It was formerly part of glibc and therefore glibc currently carries a
transitional dependency on libxcrypt-dev. However, that dependency had
to be removed during architecture bootstrap so packages relevant to
architecture bootstrap need to depend on libxcrypt-dev now already.
Please add libxcrypt-dev to sysvinit's Build-Depends.
