    sh: Add config tag to /.profile

    The file /.profile is installed as a hard link to /root/.profile. The
    file in /root has the config tag, but the file in / does not, which
    causes it to be overwritten by pkg upgrade. Since they're linked, this
    also overwrites the file in /root.

    Add the config tag to the file in / as well, so pkg treates both links
    as config files and won't overwrite them.
