Wget: don't compile non-ssl variant and use gnu-wget instead of uclient-fetch

Our users notified us that Subordinates tab is no longer present in Foris in HBT branch and above. I've tested it on Turris 1.1 running the latest HBK build and I am able to reproduce it.

It seems that the proposed solution from PR https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/turris/turris-build/merge_requests/52 is not sufficient. When I installed gnu-wget it was better. It chose wget with SSL. I'm in favor to use gnu-wget instead of uclient-fetch which provides wget. See: https://github.com/openwrt/packages/issues/9456#issuecomment-510729460

Anyway, the sizes of wget and wget-nossl

  • wget-nossl: 176K
  • wget: 194K

The difference is 18K, so let's don't compile wget-nossl and it will save us a lot of troubles.
