[Buildroot] [PATCH] perl-db-file: remove this package

[Francois Perrad]

The module DB_File (Berkeley DB wrapper) is a Perl core module.
Long time ago, its built as core module was broken.
Since perl-cross-1.0.2, this issue is fixed.
So, this package which build DB_File as CPAN module, becomes useless.

`depends on BR2_PACKAGE_PERL_DB_FILE` could be replaced by
`select BR2_PACKAGE_BERKELEYDB` and `depends on BR2_PACKAGE_PERL`.
