[Buildroot] [git commit branch/2026.05.x] package/nettle: clarify license info

commit: https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/commit/031a4acf6fe6bf0e57ad551456e7fa41f7cefcab
branch: https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/tree/2026.05.x

The Nettle manual (nettle.html in the source archive) states:

> Nettle is dual licenced under the GNU General Public License version
> 2 or later, and the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3 or
> later. When using Nettle, you must comply fully with all conditions
> of at least one of these licenses. [...]

This means "or" is the correct description. Ellipsis covers a note
that a few files are licensed more permissively.
