Add coreutils dependency on toolchain headers >= 5.6 for 32-bit system to
gain access to 64-bit time_t.
Fixes:

- Config.in comment section for package/glslsandbox-player and
package/opkg-utils missing
- Not sure if this is sufficient (e.g. possible libc system and/or
version dependency), other possible solution would be something
like introducing BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_64_BIT_TIME_T

The current situation of 64-bit time_t is:
depends on BR2_ARCH_IS_64 || \
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_MUSL || \
(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC && BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HEADERS_AT_LEAST_5_6)
i.e.:
- 64-bit platforms always have 64-bit time.
- musl AFAIK always has 64-bit time in the headers (not sure what happens in
the actual syscalls).
- uClibc never has 64-bit time.
- glibc has 64-bit time with sufficiently recent headers.
It's actually a bit more complicated still, because on some architectures
(riscv for example), there's always 64-bit time even if it's a 32-bit
architecture. So on those, even uClibc has 64-bit time.
Because of all this complexity, I think it's better to introduce something
like BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_TIME_T_64 that encodes those conditions. It would be a
blind symbol that defaults y for 64-bit architectures and is selected by the
respective arch or toolchain symbols. It's a bit complicated that way, but gives
us most flexibility to get all the conditions right. For instance, in external
toolchains it would only be selected if glibc is sufficiently recent.
Therefore, I've marked this patch as Changes Requested. But I also added the
other matinainters in Cc because they may have different opinions.
Regards,
Arnout

No, I agree - Nice summary!
