add defaults for compat layer variant symlinks

[bedroge]

Accompanying PR for EESSI/compatibility-layer#235, this creates the defaults symlinks for compat layer variant symlinks.

As an example, we get this structure:

/cvmfs/software.eessi.io/versions/2026.06/compat/linux/x86_64/etc/hosts
-> 
'$(EESSI_202606_COMPAT_ETC_HOSTS):-/cvmfs/software.eessi.io/defaults/compat/etc/hosts'
->
'$(EESSI_COMPAT_ETC_HOSTS):-/etc/hosts'

I.e., by default every symlink will point to the same file on the host, but you can override the default (i.e. for all EESSI versions) or per version.

Should these compat variables also have _DEFAULT, i.e. EESSI_COMPAT_ETC_ETHERS_DEFAULT? I figured the name would be clear enough without it, it's already in a defaults directory anyway, but for consistency we could add it.

No DEFAULT makes sense to me, as was discussed in our meeting (I think @ocaisa had a good reasoning for it)

@bedroge Do we need to worry here that we only want these for EESSI 2026+ ?

No, they're in a top-level defaults directory, and they're only used by the variant symlinks in 2026.06 (and later). They won't affect older versions in any way.
