libgcrypt: solve CVE-2021-33560 and CVE-2021-40528

This change fixes patches for two issues reported in a research
paper [1]: a side channel attack (*) and a cross-configuration
attack (**).

In this commit we add a fix for (*) that wasn't marked as a CVE
initially in the upstream. A fix of (**) available in Yocto
backport is in fact fixing CVE-2021-40528, not CVE-2021-33560
as marked in the commit message.

We commit the accual fix for CVE-2021-33560 and whitelist
CVE-2021-40528 until we rename the patch upstream.

For details of the mismatch and the timeline see [2] (fix of the
documentation) and [3] (the related ticket upstream).
