Subject: [PATCH] wip: attempt to fix SDK build with dependency workarounds

Adds workarounds to build SecuBox packages in SDK environment despite
lucihttp/cgi-io compilation failures.

Changes:
- Download pre-built LuCI dependencies step (downloads package index)
- Configure SDK with BUILDBOT flags to prefer binaries
- Build with fallback: try standard compile, fallback to direct packaging
- Use -j1 (single thread) to avoid race conditions

Note: This is experimental. The root issue is that OpenWrt SDK cannot
compile lucihttp/cgi-io due to missing ubus headers. A better long-term
solution may be to use ImageBuilder instead of SDK for package builds.
