obmc-phosphor-image: disable /etc/version file
The /etc/version file is created by image generation with the timestamp
of when the image was built. This is not useful to users and they
should instead use /etc/os-release. There appears to be no way to
disable the version file. Per the following email, delete it as
part of the ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND:

Fixes openbmc/openbmc#1232.
