[Buildroot] [PATCH] binutils: Add user support for fetching from git.

[Andrew Burgess <andrew.burgess@embecosm.com>]

Ping! I don't know if there's any interest in adding this feature.
I've found it pretty useful, but I understand that there might not be
a desire to allow random versions to be fetched from version control.

Thanks,
Andrew
