    Gnulib integration

    Applied the following command:

      git submodule add git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib.git

    This added gnulib in .git/index and created an empty `gnulib'
    directory.  This directory contains all the gnulib code, but is not
    distributed. gnulib m4 dir are now in `gnulib_m4', while gnulib .c
    files are located in `lib'.  `gnulib_m4' and `lib' are generated and
    distributed.

    * .gitsubmodules: new file.
    * src/libs/gnulib: removed.

    Minimal Automake support.  Makefile in non-recursive style.

    Removed old build system Makefile.*.  Removed various files that are
    now generated by the bootstrap script: `configure',
    `src/include/config.hin', various helper scripts (`config.guess',
    `config.rpath' etc...) that are now installed by in `build-aux'.
    Added the minimal code in Makefile.am to build the gnulib.

    * Makefile.am: new file (moved and adapted from Makefile.in).
    * acinclude.m4: new file (moved from aclocal.m4, which is now generated).
    * INSTALL.extra: new file (moved from the original INSTALL file, which
      is now a symlink to gnulib/doc/INSTALL).
    * THANKS, AUTHORS: new empty files.
    * TESTS: new file to sum up the tests that were done for the Automake
      migration.

This was done during the automake migration.

Update infrastructure to use gnulib.  Right now, it has a hybrid approach to use gnulib for a single module only, which is a waste of resources and a pain to maintain.

(This upgrade request comes from Werner Lemberg's list of the highest priority major upgrades groff needs, as posted to the groff email list on 15 Nov 2013.  The paragraph above is the upgrade description in his own words.)
