There is an updated pull request by ahesford against master on the void-packages repository

julia: update to 1.5.0.
The issues from <https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/21960> have been resolved, so system libgit2 is used instead of vendoring in dependency.

Switching from using skiprdeps to noverifyrdeps so that dependency
isn't falsely detected on libraries julia vendors
<https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/23997#issuecomment-667626936>.

[ci skip] because llvm takes too long to build.

Builds fine on my x86_64 glibc machine, and in principle we should be able to build julia on other supported architectures (armv7, aarch64, and x86_64-musl), but I don't have void installs to test that on.

EDIT: I successfully built in a x86_64-musl hostdir/masterdir using the current template.

A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/24097.patch is attached
