Fix countme bucket calculation

Actually use the system's installation time (if known) as the reference
point, instead of the first-ever countme event recorded for the given
repo.

This is what the dnf.conf(5) man page always said about the countme
option, the code just never lived up to that.

This makes bucket calculation more accurate:

1. System upgrades will no longer reset the bucket to 1 (this used to be
   the case due to a new persistdir being created whenever $releasever
   changed).

2. Systems that only reach out to the repos after an initial time period
   after being installed will no longer appear younger than they really
   are.

3. Prebuilt OS images that happen to include countme cookies created at
   build time will no longer cause all the instances spawned from those
   images (physical machines, VMs or containers) to appear older than
   they really are.

Use the machine-id(5) file's mtime to infer the installation time.  This
file is semantically tied to the system's lifetime since it's typically
populated at installation time or during the first boot by an installer
tool or init system, respectively, and remains unchanged.

The fact that it's a well-defined file with clear semantics ensures that
OS images won't accidentally include a prepopulated version of this file
with a timestamp corresponding to the image build, unlike our own cookie
files (see point 3 above).

In some cases, such as in OCI containers without an init system running,
the machine-id file may be missing or empty, even though the system is
still used long-term.  To cover those, keep the original, relative epoch
as a fallback method.  System upgrades aren't really a thing for such
systems so the above point 1 doesn't apply here.

Some containers, such as those created by toolbox(1), may also choose to
bind-mount the host's machine-id file, thus falling into the same bucket
as their host.  Conveniently, that's what we want, since the purpose of
such containers is to blend with the host as much as possible.
