[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/1] Bump bc version to 1.06.95

[grepper <grepper@gmail.com>]

From: Robert Sohn <grepper@gmail.com>

The current version of bc being used (1.06) is from the year 2000. As
well it has a serious bug when the math library is used (segfault).
Even the 1.06.95 version is 9 years old.

Though the source for the buildroot package is downloaded from
http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/bc, I have included several patches from the
Debian bc package in Jessie, version 1.06.95-9. It was downloaded from:
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/bc.
The first patch is self-explanatory, it fixes a small bug in
initializing an array. The patch author is Phil Nelson.
The second patch 02_notice_read_write_errors is described by
its author Ian Jackson (iwj at ubuntu.com):
"Make dc notice read and write errors on its input and output".
So better error checking and error messages.

+Description: notice read and write errors on input and output
+ Quoting from the bug report:
+    +bc (1.06-19ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low
+    +
+    +  * Make dc notice read and write errors on its input and output.
+    +    I grepped for mentions of the strings `putc', `print', `getc', `FILE',
+    +    `stdin', `stdout' and `stderr' and added calls to new error-checking
+    +    functions unless it was clear from the immediately-surrounding code
+    +    that the program was exiting nonzero, or would exit nonzero if the
+    +    call failed.  I ignored hits in lib/getopt*, which seems to
+    +    pervasively ignore write errors when printing usage messages, in the
+    +    hope that these were correct.  I _think_ I got them all.  -iwj.
