gnu: ragel: Fix build of knot on aarch64-linux.
Apply a patch backported from Ragel's "ragel-6" branch that allows it to
reliably generate usable code on aarch64-linux where the C/C++ "char" type is
unsigned by default, fixing the build of Knot on this platform.

* gnu/packages/patches/ragel-char-signedness.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/ragel.scm (ragel)[arguments]: Add custom phase for AArch64 that
applies the patch.
[native-inputs]: Add "patch" and patch file on AArch64.

Subject: [PATCH] C char type: decide signedness of char based on CHAR_MIN
Previously had char fixed to signed char, this is not useful on ARM as it does
not align with the host type. Instead, decide at runtime (or probably compile
time) if char is signed or not.
