Instead of causing nondeterministing conditional compilation depending on
whether libnl-core happens to be present or not, fixup the net-snmp package
to link against libnl-tiny which is present by default on the majority of
systems.
In order to successfully build against libnl-tiny, a number of things had
to be fixed in both the upstream configure and the outer Makefile:
- Add a patch which fixes the upstream configure macros to properly handle
cases where the cache variables for nl_connect() and netlink.h tests are
predefined. Without this patch, all subsequent link tests in configure
will fail, causing the build system to assume functions like opendir() or
readdir() to be missing, leading to build failures later on due to
conflicting redefinitions of structures and function prototypes
- In the same patch, stop probing the host systems /usr/include/libnl-3 if
ac_cv_header_netlink_netlink_h is given. This brings the proprietary
configure bits in line with the behaviour expected from autoconfig in a
cross compile setting
- Explicitely request nl support by passing the --with-nl flag to configure
- Pass the required cache variables to skip the broken tests for
nl_connect() and netlink.h
- Amend TARGET_CPPFLAGS to let net-snmp's build system discover nl-tiny's
netlink/netlink.h and netlink/socket.h
- Enable the autoreconf fixup to regenerate the broken shipped configure
from patched macros
- Adjust the depends to unconditionally require libnl-tiny

Update to 5.7.3 by refreshing patches; remove 800-format-security
as upstream integrated.
Add libnl dependency in the package Makefile as net-snmp will check
if libnl is enabled in config_os_libs2.
Remove unneeded PKG_FIXUP build variable.
