    Some platforms clear /var/run at boot, which makes connecting a remote console... difficult.
    
    Previously, we only created the default /var/run/asterisk directory at install
    time.  While we could create it in the init script, that would not work for
    those who start asterisk manually from the command line.  So the safest thing
    to do is to create it as part of the Asterisk boot process.  This also changes
    the ownership of the directory, because the pid and ctl files are created after
    we setuid/setgid.
