[Buildroot] [git commit] trivial: fix typo 'informations'

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=60714bb2ed7060b859a49abea8471950b9878bf8
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

In English, unlike in French, almost all usages of the word 'information'
are uncountable, meaning that 'informations' is invalid.
This patch fixes this typo throughout the tree, except in CHANGES and
docs/news.html (historic text).
