updated package files

Buildroot 2021.11.1 contains version 1.3-20200327 of the "dialog" package. This version of the package is outdated and contains a bug in the "--pause" command line parameter.

There are newer versions of dialog available which fix this bug. The current version is 1.3-20220117. Please update the package to the current version. 

I included an updated version of dialog.mk and dialog.hash in the attachment.

Dialog is updated in the 'next' branch.

The changes are a bit to much to still apply it in the master branch, since we're in the stabilisation period for 2022.02.
