[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/gdb: fix gnulib issue with musl and uClibc toolchains again

The commit [1] doesn't fix this issue for all cases (it doesn't work
when BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_DEBUGGER=y).
So, leave the configure script alone and override
gl_cv_func_gettimeofday_clobber from GDB_MAKE_ENV.

[1] 560334bb2a46a77081a3944d092df7732dfca432

Note:
AlpineLinux doesn't build gdbserver "gdb server does not compile with musl"
