[Buildroot] [git commit] package/mosquitto: fix build failure with recent glibc

[Peter Korsgaard]

commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=a49354e46fcde6884703438089cb878966036763
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Fix link-time build failures because glibc>=2.34 no longer ships libanl.so
as it has been consolidated into libc.

See the inner patch message for more details.

Fixes: https://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/16223cd838876abc9b6f941f7dc20d23afa32c3b/

+Subject: [PATCH] Add configure-time check for -lanl
+
+Since glibc 2.34, libanl features have been integrated directly into libc [1].
+For backward compatibility, some toolchains still provide a shim for
+libanl as a separate .so, but new toolchains (for example for new archs
+like loongarch) do not provide it anymore.
+
+In such a case, building mosquitto fails at link time with (see [2])
+    > cannot find -lanl: No such file or directory
+
+To fix this problem while maintaining compatibility with older toolchains,
+check if a simple program that uses libanl can be compiled without -lanl,
+and only add the linker flag otherwise.
