Add a few patterns to .gitignore to cover files which are generated
by building grub ("make", "make check", "make dist") but which have
been forgotten to add to .gitignore in the past.

Going through the list of gitignore patterns without a leading slash,
this adds a leading slash where it appears to have been forgotten.
Some gitignore patterns like ".deps/" or "Makefile" clearly should
match everywhere, so those definitively need no leading slash.
For some patterns like "ascii.bitmaps", it is unclear where in the
source tree they should match. Those patterns are kept as they are,
matching the patterns in the whole tree of subdirectories.

Add trailing slashes for all patterns matching directories.
Note that we do *not* add trailing slashes for *symlinks*
to directories.

Alphabetically sort the two groups of gitignore patterns:
* The group of patterns without slashes, matching anywhere
in the directory subtree.
* The group of patterns with slashes, matching relative to the
.gitignore file's directory

Group the .gitignore patterns into two groups:
* Pattern not including a slash, i.e. matching files anywhere in
the .gitignore file's directory and all of its subdirectories.
* Patterns including a slash, i.e. matching only relative to the
.gitignore file's directory.

As all gitignore patterns containing a left or middle slash match
only relative to the .gitignore file's directory, we write them
all in the same manner with a leading slash.
This makes the file significantly easier to read.

Upgrade Gnulib files to 20190105.
It's much easier to maintain GRUB's use of portability support files
from Gnulib when the process is automatic and driven by a single
configuration file, rather than by maintainers occasionally running
gnulib-tool and committing the result. Removing these
automatically-copied files from revision control also removes the
temptation to hack the output in ways that are difficult for future
maintainers to follow. Gnulib includes a "bootstrap" program which is
designed for this.
The canonical way to bootstrap GRUB from revision control is now
"./bootstrap", but "./autogen.sh" is still useful if you just want to
generate the GRUB-specific parts of the build system.
GRUB now requires Autoconf >= 2.63 and Automake >= 1.11, in line with
Gnulib.
Gnulib source code is now placed in grub-core/lib/gnulib/ (which should
not be edited directly), and GRUB's patches are in
grub-core/lib/gnulib-patches/. I've added a few notes to the developer
manual on how to maintain this.
