[v4,0/2] add gettext-tiny package

Add lightweight alternative for the GNU gettext package - gettext-tiny.
The sources are used from sabotage-linux project. Some files are used
from the original gettext gnu like po/*, gettextize and some m4 files.

The original gettext package is renamed to gettext-gnu because now gettext is
a virtual package and gettext-gnu and gettext-tiny became as gettext providers.

There is only the case when BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT is selected directly - by
ecryptfs-utils, for this case the gettext-tiny install gettext-wrapper for the
target, the wrapper just echoes the messages w/o any translation.

v4:
    1) Refactored by Thomas Pettazoni, with extracting required gettext-gnu files from
       from downloaded archive rather than from direct URL link per each file.

    2) Allow gettext-tiny to be installed for the target which only installs
       gettext tool echo-wrapper provided by Yann E. Morin.

    3) Fixed author and SoB emails in *-format-not-a-string-literal-error-for-gc.patch

v3:
    1) Rebased on master.

    2) Drop wine related patch which is already applied.


v2:
    1) Add patch to disable gettext option for "wine" if NLS is disabled.

    2) Fix build issue with libuio by adding config.rpath by separate package
       patch:

           0002-Add-config.rpath-from-gettext-gnu-distro-0.19.8.1.patch

    3) Use gettext-tiny only as for HOST alternative and if NLS is disabled.
       There is no option to manually select gettext-gnu or gettext-tiny which
       is controlled by gettext virtual package.

    4) Drop "files" folder with copied files from original gettext gnu, but
       download them from:

           https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gettext.git

       Thanks to Yann E. Morin for help with this.

    5) gettextize is preprocessed from the original gettextize.in

    6) Use only host-generic-package for gettext-tiny, hence remove "target"
       related stuff.

Thanks, I've applied both patches!

A couple of notes/suggestions:

 - It would be nice if you could work with upstream gettext-tiny to
   make sure gettext-tiny provides everything we need, without the need
   to bring some files from gettext-gnu.

 - The ecryptfs-utils package can probably see its BR2_USE_WCHAR
   dependency removed. Indeed, when BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS is disabled,
   we use gettext-tiny, and wchar is no longer needed. And
   BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS depends on wchar.

 - I have sent a patch for utils/genrandconfig that randomly sets BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS=y in the autobuilder configurations, in order to test this situation.

Gah, I hit Ctrl+Enter and it sent the e-mail before I finished. I meant
to wrap this line, and say:

Thanks a lot for this contribution, it was not trivial, but it's
definitely a nice improvement!

Best regards,

Thomas
