[Buildroot] [PATCH v3] erlang: add option to enable SMP support

Erlang builds two emulators depending on whether SMP is supported or
not. If it is known that the target does not support SMP, turning off
the SMP emulator saves compile time and reduces the size of the
installation.

+	  Erlang provides both a UP and an SMP emulator. The UP emulator
+	  is always built, and this option enables compilation of the SMP
+	  emulator. The choice of which emulator to use is made at runtime.

 	  The Megaco application is a framework for building applications
 	  on top of the Megaco/H.248 protocol. It is approximately 14MB in
 	  size so if you do not need it then it is recommended not to
 	  enable it.
