Farid Zakaria 4687d7523b glibc: add dependency on netbase /etc/protocols
Add an explicit dependency on netbase for /etc/protocols

Certain functions in glibc look for files present in /etc such as getprotobyname which reads /etc/protocols.
If you are using Nix over a Linux installation, this file may not be present, and therefore it will cause errors.

- add netbase as a new package in nixpks
- add a dependency in glibc on it using postPatchPhase and substitute
the path

Fixes #124401
