opensuse: prevent zypper from pulling busybox in the initrd

zypper's internal logic selects busybox-package variants of packages that are
required via dependency and not explicitly listed to install, which also causes
busybox to be added to the initrd.

Also, remove the shadow package (the equivalent to the shadow-utils package in
Fedora).
