[Buildroot] [PATCH v2, 1/1] toolchain/Config.in: update BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC dependencies

[Fabrice Fontaine <fontaine.fabrice@gmail.com>]

Update BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC dependencies to avoid the following
build failure with libopenssl and
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_BOOTLIN_ARMV7M_UCLIBC_STABLE:

/home/buildroot/autobuild/run/instance-2/output-1/host/opt/ext-toolchain/arm-buildroot-uclinux-uclibcgnueabi/bin/ld.real: ./libcrypto.a(libcrypto-lib-threads_pthread.o): in function `CRYPTO_atomic_or':
threads_pthread.c:(.text+0xfa): undefined reference to `__atomic_is_lock_free'

libatomic is available since gcc 4.8, when thread support is enabled.
However, the gcc logic in libatomic/configure.tgt does not recognize
"uclinux" as a valid OS part of the target tuple, and therefore it
does not build libatomic. The "uclinux" part of the tuple is used by
Buildroot when BR2_BINFMT_FLAT=y [1]. This broken logic has only been
fixed for arm since gcc 10.1.0 [2].

Indeed, bootlin armv7m is an uclibc toolchain compiled with atomic
support through libatomic.

Changes v1 -> v2 (after review of Thomas Petazzoni):
 - Update dependencies to enable libatomic with uclibc only on arm with
   gcc 10
