Upgrading Busybox

I am wondering if anyone has looked into upgrading the Busybox in their Orbi and with Voxel. I see we're at 1.24.1, while busybox's official release is 1.31.1.

TBH I actually have no specific need, but since Voxel brings up to date so many other binaries I was wondering why not this one.

Busybox on NG is a special implementation (from NG), so @Voxel cannot simply compile a fresh new version without losing precious acceleration.

Busybox updates tend to break things from time to time - in past experience, always best to leave it as it is, and backport security fixes as needed...
