552c9fd081 gnulib: Fix build of base64 when compiling with memory debugging
When building GRUB with memory management debugging enabled, then the
build fails because of `grub_debug_malloc()` and `grub_debug_free()`
being undefined in the luks2 module. The cause is that we patch
"base64.h" to unconditionaly include "config-util.h", which shouldn't be
included for modules at all. As a result, `MM_DEBUG` is defined when
building the module, causing it to use the debug memory allocation
functions. As these are not built into modules, we end up with a linker
error.

Fix the issue by removing the <config-util.h> include altogether. The
sole reason it was included was for the `_GL_ATTRIBUTE_CONST` macro,
which we can simply define as empty in case it's not set.

9fbdec2f6b bootstrap: Add gnulib's base64 module
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>.
