The "find" and "xargs" commands, from the "findutils" package are used during the build process. See for example [1]. Even if it's a quite common package which is almost sure to be present on the host, it should be listed here. When writing new recipes, hooks and scripts, it is generally safe and portable to restrict to the host dependencies listed in those prerequisites. This commit just add the missing "findutils" package in this list.
