[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/expat: update site link

[Bruno Seifert]

Hi,

This can absolutely wait for the next expat bump.
I simply had to write this fix as I'm still on buildroot 2019.11 and the
corresponding expat version isn't available on sourceforge anymore, only
the new github location. I just guessed you guys weren't aware of the
upcoming change yet.  And since I had to figure out the solution anyway, I
might as well tell you about it.

Best regards,
Bruno
