fix(entrypoint): fail closed on planted symlinks before nginx starts

drop_symlink unlinks as root (never follows the target) and refuses to start if
the path is still a symlink. Immediately before nginx (which opens its logs
under /home/$user/logs as root) starts, logs/, logs/nginx and logs/nodejs must be
real directories and nothing under logs/ may be other than a regular file or
directory, else the entrypoint exits 1.
