package/erlang: ignore Windows specific CVE-2021-29221

CVE-2021-29221 is a Windows specific issue:

A local privilege escalation vulnerability was discovered in Erlang/OTP
prior to version 23.2.3.  By adding files to an existing installation's
directory, a local attacker could hijack accounts of other users running
Erlang programs or possibly coerce a service running with "erlsrv.exe" to
execute arbitrary code as Local System.  This can occur only under specific
conditions on Windows with unsafe filesystem permissions.

So ignore it.
