These were inadvertently lost during the conversion to Gnulib (gnulib:
Upgrade Gnulib and switch to bootstrap tool; commit 35b909062). The
files in po/gettext-patches/ can be imported using "git am" on top of
the gettext tag corresponding to AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION in configure.ac
(currently 0.18.3). They handle translation of messages in shell files,
make msgfmt output in little-endian format, and arrange to use @SHELL@
rather than /bin/sh.
There were some changes solely for the purpose of distributing extra
files; for ease of maintenance, I've added these to
conf/Makefile.extra-dist instead.

The upcoming support for LUKS2 disc encryption requires us to include a
parser for base64-encoded data, as it is used to represent salts and
digests. As gnulib already has code to decode such data, we can just
add it to the boostrapping configuration in order to make it available
in GRUB.
The gnulib module makes use of booleans via the <stdbool.h> header. As
GRUB does not provide any POSIX wrapper header for this, but instead
implements support for bool in <sys/types.h>, we need to patch
base64.h to not use <stdbool.h> anymore. We unfortunately cannot include
<sys/types.h> instead, as it would then use gnulib's internal header
while compiling the gnulib object but our own <sys/types.h> when
including it in a GRUB module. Because of this, the patch replaces the
include with a direct typedef.
A second fix is required to make available _GL_ATTRIBUTE_CONST, which
is provided by the configure script. As base64.h does not include
<config.h>, it is thus not available and results in a compile error.
This is fixed by adding an include of <config-util.h>.

Various GRUB utilities fail if the current directory doesn't exist,
because grub_find_device() chdirs to a different directory and then
fails when trying to chdir back. Gnulib's save-cwd module uses fchdir()
instead when it can, avoiding this category of problem.
Fixes Debian bug #918700.

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.
