[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 0/1] utils/scanpypi: workaround for pypi project names

[Flaviu Nistor <flaviu.nistor@gmail.com>]

I want to propuse this patch and hope others find it useful.
While using scanpypi I noticed that for smmap2 package the modified .mk
.hash files where not correct, since smmap2 pypi project is just a
mirror of smmap and has different revision and hashes. I realized why the
problem exist just by reading the commit history of smmap2 and saw Thomas
Petazzoni's remark in commit: 8bc8f4c4161ddfd255615ce0962b570da20c4148.
The same is valid for gitdb2 package. To avoid this issue in the future
for this packages and others (as I'm sure there are similar cases),
get the pypi name from the .mk file if it exist for buildroot packages
that have a different name compared to the pypi project name
(e.g. smmap2 -> smmap). Since there is no intention to change the buildroot
package name, this is a solution in order to use the scanpypi utility for
this packages and still get correct generated files. 
Other packages can be added in the dictionary as needed.
This solution implementation was suggested by Arnout Vandecappelle in his
reply to my initial workaround proposal.

Changes in v2:
- Implement solution suggested by Arnout Vandecappelle.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260327064354.5892-2-flaviu.nistor@gmail.com/
