package/pulseview: fix build when linking against libatomic is needed

With some toolchains, using atomics requires to explicitly add -latomic
to the linker flags.

This change adds a patch to pulseview adding this detection and updating
the LDFLAGS when appropriate.

This patch has be sent upstream:
  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.debugging.sigrok.devel/2097

+Subject: [PATCH] cmake: add check for explicit linking against libatomic
+
+To use atomics functions, some toolchains requires to explicitly add
+-latomic to the linker flags (because they are not provided by libc,
+but libatomic).
+
+This change adds a helper function trying to build/link a test program
+using atomics, then calls it to:
+* first check if atomics are directly available in the libc;
+* if not and libatomic has been found, then run the same test with
+  "-latomic" added to the linker flags.
+The pulseview link library list is updated according to the results of
+these tests.
+
+This issue was triggered by the Buildroot farms:
+  http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/1e3/1e3101261252d5f30fdf842cc99604e4f4c25eef/build-end.log
+
+Notes:
+1- CMAKE_REQUIRED_* variables are only used in check functions. They
+   are not automatically forwarded to/handled by the target commands
+   (such as target_link_library), because the check functions are
+   implemented as macro in CMake code, whereas many target commands
+   are native.
+2- Because of note #1, CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES (or its value) must be
+   explicitly passed to the target_link_library command when this is
+   needed.
+3- In this implementation, LIBATOMIC_LIBRARY is only set when it is
+   needed; so, unconditionally appending it to PULSEVIEW_LINK_LIBS
+   will produce the expected behavior.
