[Buildroot] [PATCH] initial util-linux-ng package

[Daniel Mierswa]

This is my first attempt to replace the obsolete util-linux package with
util-linux-ng. I replaced the susv3 patch with an uptodate version and
sent it upstream, the nls and umount2 patch were removed because I
didn't face any issues. If there's platform specific stuff to be added
we can still figure it out. I hope someone finds interest in this.
Cheers.

Mierswa, Daniel

If you still don't like it, that's ok: that's why I'm boss. I simply know better than you do.

This works for me, and I think the switch to util-linux-ng is long
overdue at this point. Thanks for doing this work.
