tools: flex: fix segfault with glibc 2.26+

Fix segmentation fault caused by implicit declaration of function 'reallocarray'. Added patch will enable
reallocarray() prototype in glibc 2.26+ on Linux systems. This fix will be included in flex 2.6.5.

Fixes LEDE issue: FS#1003 (Flex does not build with GCC 7.2)

+Subject: [PATCH] build: AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS in configure.ac.
+
+This would, e.g. define _GNU_SOURCE in config.h, enabling the
+reallocarray() prototype in glibc 2.26+ on Linux systems with that
+version of glibc.
+
+Fixes #241.
