[Buildroot] [PATCH v3] package: Add support for pidgin/finch instant messenger (2.7.1)

[Peter Huewe <PeterHuewe@gmx.de>]

From: Peter Huewe <peterhuewe@gmx.de>

Pidgin is a free and open source instant multiprotocol (ICQ, IRC, Jabber
...) messenger.

Finch is a ncurses based console version of pidgin.

For more information visit http://pidgin.im

This patch adds support for Finch 2.7.1 to the buildroot buildsystem.
Finch is compiled with support for ICQ, IRC and Jabber;
However other protocols might be added to the script too / script can be
converted to a more modular style.

Tested on and compiled with atmel ngw100_defconfig.

Signed-off-by: Peter Huewe <peterhuewe@gmx.de>

- Version Bump to 2.7.1
- LIBTOOL_PATCH = NO, added
