[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/libopenh264: ignore CVE-2025-27091

Both openh264 2.6.0 and 2.5.1 contain the fix for this CVE (see the
release notes at [1]).

In other words the version we have is no longer vulnerable since
a7aeb5a46eaaf8a39560c8664593018cf253835a ("package/libopenh264:
security bump to version 2.5.1") but pkg-stats still reports it.

An email was sent to the NVD to fix the CPE version number, but in the
meantime let's ignore it to reduce the noise in our CVE checker.
