Peter Korsgaard 7b98e2ce2c package/flex: fix GCC 15.x build issue
Fixes:
https://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/924b1015d4b81385409ef00f1a14be3ca1959c8e/

As part of building flex for the target a few files are built for the host,
including a rpl_malloc() implementation containing a malloc() forward
declaration without any function parameters.

GCC 15 defaults to -std=gnu23, which handles function declarations without
parameters differently from earlier C standards leading to compilation
errors:

../lib/malloc.c:6:12: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'malloc'; expected 'void *(long unsigned int)' [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch]
    6 |      void *malloc ();
      |            ^~~~~~
../lib/malloc.c:5:1: note: 'malloc' is declared in header '<stdlib.h>'
    4 |      #include <sys/types.h>
  +++ |+#include <stdlib.h>
    5 |
../lib/malloc.c: In function 'rpl_malloc':
../lib/malloc.c:16:15: error: too many arguments to function 'malloc'; expected 0, have 1

Add a patch submitted upstream to correct the prototype.
