package/protobuf: uses fork(), not available on no-MMU platforms
This was not noticed until now because:
1/ The older Blackfin toolchain doesn't have libatomic, so it didn't
provide the atomic operations that protobuf needs, so protobuf was
never built.
2/ The ARM Cortex-M toolchain is static-only, and protobuf requires
dynamic library support.
So it's only with the new Blackfin toolchain, which is based on gcc
6.x (and therefore provides libatomic) and is FDPIC-based (and therefore
has dynamic library support) that this problem appeared.
Since protobuf already has a BR2_PACKAGE_PROTOBUF_ARCH_SUPPORTS option,
we use it to add the BR2_USE_MMU dependency (which is architecture
related), which avoids the need to propagate the dependency.

[Thomas:
- move the BR2_USE_MMU dependency under
BR2_PACKAGE_PROTOBUF_ARCH_SUPPORTS and remove the propagation to
reverse dependencies of protobuf, since they already depend on
BR2_PACKAGE_PROTOBUF_ARCH_SUPPORTS.
- improve commit log.]
