[Buildroot] [PATCH] lshw: use data files provided by hwdata

lshw is seldomly released, so its data files become easily outdated.
Fortunately it looks for the files in several directories, so let it
find the files at /usr/share/hwdata, since the hwdata collection is
released on a monthly basis.

The manuf.txt and oui.txt files are not used at run time, so it's not
necessary to install them.
