uClibc #includes the kernel headers in its own headers, and/or parses
stuff out of them at build time. Thus you have to tell uClibc where the
kernel headers are in order to build uClibc, so kernel headers are
installed as part of the uClibc build process.
Musl doesn't use kernel headers. You can install them after the fact
(attached is the script I use to do so), but musl itself is not
involved in this.
