bee_layer_classify only ever tracked regular files and symlinks
(`find ... -type f -o -type l`), so any directory that is empty at
build time — like /var/log/nvidia-dcgm, correctly created and chowned
by the datacenter-gpu-manager postinst — was silently dropped from
every layer's rsync --files-from list and never reached the built
ISO. This is why bbc6fb1's 78d1b9b follow-up (seeding a marker file
just for that one path) kept the directory alive: it was a targeted
workaround for a general gap in the classifier, not a fix of it.
Replace that workaround with the general mechanism: classify also
walks every directory, computes the subset that is empty all the way
down (no file or symlink anywhere in its subtree — a directory that
does hold files needs no entry, rsync already recreates it as an
implied parent), and assigns each one to a layer via the same
dpkg-ownership / injected-rule precedence used for files. Add an
injected rule routing /var/log/nvidia-dcgm to 20-nvidia-platform,
alongside the DCGM binaries that actually use it, instead of letting
it fall through to base by default.
bee_layer_build folds each layer's empty-dir list into the same
rsync --files-from call; recursion into a directory that is
by-construction empty copies nothing extra. Revert the 9000/9999 hook
changes from 78d1b9b now that they're redundant, and cover the new
path with test-squashfs-layers.sh (ruled, unruled, and nested-empty
directories, asserted present in the merged rootfs after a real
mksquashfs/unsquashfs round-trip).

bbc6fb1 chowned the directory correctly but it stayed empty at build
time, and bee_layer_classify (squashfs-layers.sh) only tracks regular
files and symlinks via `find ... -type f -o -type l` — an empty
directory is silently dropped from every layer's rsync --files-from
list and never reaches the built ISO. dcgmi diag's deployment check
still failed with DCGM_FR_FILE_CREATE_PERMISSIONS after rebuilding on
top of that fix because the directory simply didn't exist at boot.
Seed /var/log/nvidia-dcgm/.keep so the directory rides along the
classifier as an implied parent (rsync -a preserves its ownership),
and stop 9999-slim's log sweep from deleting that marker before the
classifier ever sees it.

Removes ~100-300MB from the squashfs: man pages, non-en locales,
python cache, apt lists and package cache, temp files and logs.
