keepdir should create .keep-files as .keep_${CATEGORY}_${PN}-${SLOT} (or something else)

Description

A use case for it: dev-db/postgresql-server needs a directory /var/run/postgresql and is slotted. Using /var/run/postgresq-${SLOT} is no solution for various reasons. Doing "keepdir /var/run/postgresql" leads to collisions.

Current workaround: 

[ -f "${ROOT}/var/run/postgresql/.keep" ] || keepdir /var/run/postgresql

in src_install

which still may lead to collisions when doing a binary installation (don't care about that atm)

Portage already does this, btw.
