Victor Huesca b34ead55c0 package: remove non-conventional prefix/suffix from github-fetched packages
On Github, a large number of projects name their tag
<some-prefix>-0.3-<some-suffix> (i.e release-3.0, poco-0.1-release,
etc.). In fact majority of the cased adressed in this commit concerns
prefixes.

In most packages, we encode those prefix/suffix in the <pkg>_VERSION
variable.

The problem with this approach is that when used in conjunction with
release-monitoring.org, it doesn't work very well, because
release-monitoring.org has the concept of "version prefix/suffix" and
using that they drop the prefix/suffix to really get the version. For
example on https://release-monitoring.org/project/5418/ the latest
release of "poco" is "1.8.1", not "poco-1.8.1-release".

Therefore, a number of packages in Buildroot have a version that
doesn't match with release-monitoring.org.

Since really the version number of 1.8.1, is makes sense to update our
packages to drop these prefixes/suffixes.

This commit addreses the case of github-fetched packages with
non-conventional prefixes/suffixes.

Note that these changes modify the name of the files stored in DL_DIR,
which means that this will force a re-download of those package source
code for all users, and requires a change to their .hash file.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
