concretizer: remove ad-hoc rule for external packages (#20193)
fixes #20040 Matching compilers among nodes has been prioritized in #20020. Selection of default variants has been tuned in #20182. With this setup there is no need to have an ad-hoc rule for external packages. On the contrary it should be removed to prefer having default variant values over more external nodes in the DAG.
