[Buildroot] [PATCH] configs/imxrt1050-evk_defconfig: bump u-boot to fix the build

[Giulio Benetti]

Python setuptools has removed the obsolete pkg_resources python module in
v82.0.0. This module is used by the binman command in U-Boot until
v2025.10.
Since the python-setuptools package has been updated to v82.0.0 in
Buildroot, the iot-gate-imx8_ebbr_defconfig (using U-Boot v2025.07 and
binman) fails to build with the following error [1]:

  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

Update the defconfig to use a more recent U-Boot v2026.01, to fix the
build.

And at the same time bump Linux to version 6.18.18.

Can a maintainer reword the patch while applying?
Otherwise I can send a V2 patch.

Best regards
