Update early logger logging path after remounting root as rw

Hello people I'm configuring my linux to use s6-rc. It works fairly well so far. One thing I want to improve though, is that the early logger logs to /run/uncaught-logs. It's nice to have a log file during early boot and it helped my debugging easier. But it would be cool to able to change the loc
