[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/6 v2] package/rpi-firmware: add option to install vcdbg

vcdbg is a tool to help debug the communication with the GPU.
It comes as a binary-only, and in two flavours: one for the hard
floating point ABI, one for the software floating poitn ABI.
Unfortunately, we have no source code for that tool, only a binary that
was dynamically linked with glibc and libraries from rpi-userland.
So, just install that executable, and let's hope there is no symbol
issue at runtime.
