libcurl: re-enable on non-MMU platforms
In 9229b82d ('libcurl: needs MMU'), the libcurl package was disabled on non-MMU systems, due to the usage of the fork() function in the library. However, a deeper inspection reveals that fork() is only used in the implementation of NTLM, an obscure, undocumented, Microsoft specific authentication method that apparently isn't common anymore. See http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html#--ntlm . Therefore, this commit re-enables libcurl on non-MMU systems by explicitly disabling the NTLM support. If someone ever needs NTLM support in Buildroot's libcurl package, it will always be time to add a libcurl sub-option to enable it.
