[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] binutils: troubleshoot native binutils building (add WCHAR dependency)

binutils starting at least from 2.23 when build for target require uClibc
configured with UCLIBC_HAS_WCHAR otherwise:
==========
libtool: link: [...] -o as-new [...]
read.o: In function `read_symbol_name':
read.c:(.text+0x3634): undefined reference to `mbstowcs'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
==========
because "mbstowcs" won't be compiled in.
