bootstrap: use latest gnulib bootstrap, gettext

* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib.  This removes an obsolescent
gettext.m4 patch, along with some other changes that do not
seem to affect coreutils.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use gettext, not gettext-h.
Current gnulib gettext seems to work without needing special hacking.
* configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Now 0.18.1, not 0.17.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
