Yann E. MORIN bf2d7f8f53 package/pkg-generic: don't download svn externals by default
Commit 7dd27cbe5b (support/download: add support to exclude svn
externals) departed from the usual opt-in scheme, like is done for
git submodule or large files, in an attempt to keep the previous
behaviour unchanged, that is to download externals by default.

As an afterthought, we've concluded that the chances for svn-hosted
packages with externals that are indeed required to do the build,
are relatively slim. For those cases, it even makes sense to explicitly
requested the use of the externals.

So, we change the default to not download svn externals.

Since the generated archives may change, we bump the version suffix.
This will allow users to more easily catch the situation and decide if
they really need the externals or not.

We have a single in-tree package that uses svn, and it does not use
externals, so the generated archive does not change, and we just need
to update the archive filename in the hash file.

Finally, we add a new section to the manual, in the chapter about
migrating Buildroot to a newer version.
