docs: fix $(PKG)_SITE_METHOD names (UPPER CASE => lower case) 



Currently, the documentation says $(PKG)_SITE_METHOD should have upper
case names such as SVN or GIT, but the implementation only accepts lower
case svn or git. This fixes the documentation.

      <li><code>LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD</code> may contain the method to

      fetch the package source code. It can either

      be <code>WGET</code> (for normal FTP/HTTP downloads of

      tarballs), <code>SVN</code> or <code>GIT</code>. When not

      be <code>wget</code> (for normal FTP/HTTP downloads of

      tarballs), <code>svn</code> or <code>git</code>. When not

      specified, it is guessed from the URL given

      in <code>LIBFOO_SITE</code>: <code>git://</code>

      and <code>svn://</code> URLs will use the <code>GIT</code>

      and <code>SVN</code> methods respectively. All other URL-types

      will use the <code>WGET</code> method. So for example, in the

      and <code>svn://</code> URLs will use the <code>git</code>

      and <code>svn</code> methods respectively. All other URL-types

      will use the <code>wget</code> method. So for example, in the

      case of a package whose source code is available through

      Subversion repository on HTTP, one <i>must</i>

      specifiy <code>LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD=SVN</code>. For <code>SVN</code>

      and <code>GIT</code> methods, what Buildroot does is a

      specifiy <code>LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD=svn</code>. For <code>svn</code>

      and <code>git</code> methods, what Buildroot does is a

      checkout/clone of the repository which is then tarballed and

      stored into the download cache. Next builds will not

      checkout/clone again, but will use the tarball
