package/squashfs: add upstream patch to fix symlinks

Since version 4.5, squashfs-tools provides two additional utilities:
sqfstar and sqfscat. But their functionality is bundled within
mksquashfs and unsquashfs respectively, so that sqfstar is a symlink
to sqfstar, and sqfscat a symlink to unsquashfs.

Unfortunately, due to how the symlinks were created, they had a bogus
target when INSTALL_DIR was not empty, leading to things like this:

 ./usr/bin/sqfscat -> /home/peko/autobuild/instance-1/output-2/target/usr/bin/unsquashfs
 ./usr/bin/sqfstar -> /home/peko/autobuild/instance-1/output-2/target/usr/bin/mksquashfs

Not only they are wrong, but they also cause reproducible build
issues (this is how they were detected).

This commit backports an upstream patch that fixes this problem.

This is also fixing the squashfs-tools part of the reproducible build
issues at:

Applied to master, thanks.
