[Buildroot] [PATCH v2] support/dependencies, scripts: accept patches with renames

[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Ryota, All,

Thanks for the respin! However, there must have been a misunderstanding
:I already applied your previous patch with the few tweaks I pointed
out. See the git tree:

    https://git.buildroot.org/buildroot/commit/?h=next&id=f46e13f05fa04a180a416876cf1dd4252dd841ad

Thanks again for following up on this! :-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
