subversion: fix svn-revision.txt conflict when building for qemux86-64

The revision-install target in Makefile.in generates svn-revision.txt
by first trying to run the cross-compiled svnversion binary on the host.
When the target architecture is x86-64 (same as the build host), the
cross-compiled binary can execute on the host. If the host has libapr1
installed, the 64-bit svnversion succeeds and outputs "Unversioned
directory", while the 32-bit (lib32) binary lacks the 32-bit libapr1
and fails, falling back to "unknown". The differing content causes an
RPM file conflict on /usr/include/subversion-1/svn-revision.txt when
lib32-subversion-dev and subversion-dev are installed together in
do_rootfs.

This does not affect non-x86-64 targets (e.g. ARM) because the
cross-compiled binary cannot execute on the x86-64 host, so both
64-bit and 32-bit builds fall through to the same fallback.

Since the source is a release tarball with no SVN metadata, the correct
value is always "unknown". Fix by patching Makefile.in to skip the
svnversion invocations entirely.
