package/fluent-bit: bump to 4.2.0

This is a major release that introduces new features, including one highlighted in the release notes:

"The v4.2 release introduces a powerful new Direct Routing
capability that allows inputs to specify routes directly to outputs, bypassing the traditional routing mechanism."

But it also brings some security fixes. Not all of
them are relevant, but some piece of lecture can be found here [1].

- https://fluentbit.io/announcements/v4.1.1/
- https://fluentbit.io/announcements/v4.2.0/

The patch 0001-plugins-kafka-fix-cmake-cross-compile-error.patch can be dropped as it has been merged upstream [2].

-
-KAFKA_INCLUDEDIR is not set if FLB_PREFER_SYSTEM_LIB_KAFKA is not used,
-when cross-compiling, it just translates to -I/librdkafka, which is not allowed.
-Fix this by only including KAFKA_INCLUDEDIR if really set.

-x86_64-linux-gcc: ERROR: unsafe header/library path used in cross-compilation: '-I/librdkafka'
