Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] pkg-download: fix fetching URLs with ? from PRIMARY/SECONDARY

Hello,
There is nothing named "SECONDARY" in Buildroot, it's called "BACKUP".
This can be fixed when applying the patch.

One thing I'm wondering is if the '?' character is the only one that
needs to be escaped like this, or not.
