[Buildroot] [PATCH 03/23] package/gkrellm: remove package, needs libgtk2

The gkrellm client needs libgtk2, which we are about to drop from
Buildroot.
Even though gkrellm has a somewhat active upstream at
https://git.srcbox.net/gkrellm/gkrellm, it isn't clear whether it is
compatible with Gtk 3 or not.
Since building just the server isn't very useful, this commit drops
the gkrellm package entirely, which is anyway not fitting well within
the scope of Buildroot, which doesn't include building a full desktop
environment: gkrellm is unlikely to be useful in typical embedded
use-cases.
