[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/libgpg-error: force cross compiling

By default autotools enters cross-compiling mode if --build and --host
differ [0]. This should normally be the case as buildroot sets itself as
vendor in the toolchain triplet.
For libgpg-error the --host flag has to be set to a generic triplet
because this information is used to lookup the syscfg.
When compiling on aarch64 for aarch64 build and host would be the same,
therefore cross-compiling isn't activated, which results in a build failure.
