packages/pkg-download.mk: fix file locking over NFS
BSD style locks such as implemented by flock are translated to POSIX
advisory file locks (implemented by the fcntl system call on Linux). It
is not possible to lock a directory using POSIX advisory file locks.
Hence, the lock strategy used by Buildroot doesn't work when used over
NFS.
Using flock on a simple file works correctly though, so use a '.lock'
file inside the download directory instead. If the lockfile does not
exist, flock will create it (in a race-free fashion).
Tested using NFS v4.2 and Linux 5.4.43.
