libc/uClibc: add uClibc 0.9.30.3

This version has been released a couple of month ago, but it never reached
crosstool-ng tree. This may be linked to the fact that the current 0.9.30.2,
once patched, has nothing much different from 0.9.30.3, released.

I'm not including any patch with this upgrade, on purpose.

    Some crosstool-NG scripts have code snippets coming almost as-is from the

It's been about a year now that we've moved the repository to Mercurial.
yann@1975
    71
The repository now has proper authorship for each changeset, and this is
yann@1975
    72
used to build the changelog at each release. This file will probably no
yann@1975
    73
longer be updated, and is here to credit people prior to the Mercurial
yann@1975
    74
migration, or for people discussing ideas or otherwise helping without
yann@1975
    75
code.
