Running autoreconf or autogen.sh is causing
the gettext-runtime subdirectory to have a configure script
that looks for and attempts to link to an external libunistring.
However, the macros and symbols for supporting that configuration
are not present in this subdirectory yet.
This results in some host machines to not build the
included libunistring objects for libgrt,
but at the same time, also not input the proper flag to the linker
for linking to an external library when it is found or even when
explicitly setting configuration to use a prefix for libunistring,
resulting in the common linking failure "undefined reference".
Some similar (and old...) upstream commits do the same thing,
but only for gettext-tools and libgettextpo.

Ref: 61e21a72f ("Avoid link error in programs that use libgettextpo.") # gettext.git

Using the local gnulib source during autogen.sh
allows for fine-grained control over the macros
and source files for use with gettext
but part of gnulib instead of gettext,
without having to wait for a release
or deal with gnulib as a git submodule.
This is an alternative to running autoreconf.
It also removes the need to patch macros
in the case where there is a conflict
between the source and our aclocal directory.

Some users have reported that gettext builds
are attempting to link to libxml2
while it was supposed to be configured
to use it's own built-in substitute.
Configure gettext to require and link
to our local libxml2 explicitly.
Add a patch to revert upstream commit 87927a4e2
which forces libtextstyle to use the built-in libxml,
no matter what the configuration is,
making that option configurable again
after the configure script is regenerated.

Instead of editing the SUBDIRS variable with a patch,
it can be overriden at the end of the command line when invoking Make.
This tool has a series of recursive Makefiles in each subdirectory,
therefore SUBDIRS is set to a pattern of Make functions
so that the result is variable depending on the current subdirectory
that Make is being invoked in.
Some of the subdirectories don't have a Makefile and are just storing files
for another subdirectory Makefile target,
therefore we have to place a fake Makefile that does nothing.

Add build parallel as it seems to work now.
Remove a bunch of uClibc-ng hacks as it is not in the tree anymore.
Format security patch was fixed upstream.

The autopoint and gettextize host utilities contain hardcoded staging dir
paths which need to be overridden for the SDK environment.
