[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/mg: needs a toolchain with wchar support

[Yegor Yefremov <yegorslists@googlemail.com>]

Since version 4.2, mg uses iswalnum() from <wctype.h> to tell whether
a UTF-8 character is part of a word (upstream commit ee22ef729b16
"Tell UTF-8 words by their Unicode class"). This breaks the build with
toolchains that lack wide character support, such as uClibc without
WCHAR:

utf8.c:23:10: fatal error: wctype.h: No such file or directory
   23 | #include <wctype.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~

Add a dependency on BR2_USE_WCHAR, together with the matching comment.

This issue has been present since commit 3b5fbe8f6e78 ("package/mg:
bump to v4.4"), which updated mg from 4.1, so it pulled in this
change. That commit is not part of any release nor of any maintenance
branch yet, so only master is affected.
