branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/next
This is to make sure that host packages that depend on `host-gawk` and that use
`awk` end up using `gawk`, instead of the `awk` symlink installed on the host
system.
On recent Debian-based distributions, `awk` is still symlinked to `mawk` [1].
