hitch: update to 1.5.2
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/22153

Description:
Minor update: https://github.com/varnish/hitch/blob/master/CHANGES.rst#hitch-152-2019-11-27

I removed the configure hacks, as it failed to apply cleanly and hacking
configure scripts is not my idea of fun. It was added in July 2017
(ccc7092) presumably to work around bugs somewhere, which may or may not
still be present.

I've also taken the library of setting myself as the maintainer, as the
current maintainer never did any work on it since 2016 and the domain in
the listed email address no longer exists.
