[Buildroot] [PATCH v4] package/libxmlsec1: new package

[Waldemar Brodkorb]

Introduce the libxmlsec1 library package. libxmlsec implements XML
security standards.

The library has only a few mandatory dependencies (libxml2 and a crypto
library). It needs one of the following cryptographic libraries:
OpenSSL, NSS, or Gcrypt/GNUTLS. Default to openssl for now to keep the
package simple.

This is based on the patch provided by Alexis Lothoré last year.
I updated it to latest available release and fixed some issues found
via test-pkg.

Sorry Waldemar, I'm seeing your patch now after having applied the one
from Alexis. Could you send any updates as patches on top of master?

I see you did not select libxslt here, while Alexis did so in his
patch. So I assume libxslt is not mandatory?

Alexis patch did not have this. I assume it fixes issue on SPARC ?

Your patch did not have the host variant, which Alexis needed.

Best regards,

Thomas
