This deletes all trace of gnulib from libvirt. We still
have the keycodemapdb submodule to deal with. The simple
solution taken was to update it when running autogen.sh.
Previously gnulib could auto-trigger refresh when running
'make' too. We could figure out a solution for this, but
with the pending meson rewrite it isn't worth worrying
about, given how infrequently keycodemapdb changes.

Some contributors are behind obnoxious firewalls that block everything
except http(s) traffic, preventing checkout of modules using the git://
protocol. Since git.savannah.gnu.org is using the modern, fast HTTP
transport, there's no real downside to using that by default.

A long time ago we imported the keymaps.csv file from GTK-VNC so we
can do conversions between keycode sets. Meanwhile lots of bug fixes
have gone into this CSV file and libvirt hasn't kept in sync. The
keymaps.csv file and associated generator script has been pulled out
of GTK-VNC into a dedicated GIT repo for use as a submodule. This
allows GTK-VNC, SPICE-GTK, QEMU and libvirt to share the same master
database and tools and pushing updates merely requires a submodule
commit update as with gnulib.
The test suite is updated to cover some extra boundary conditions.

This makes it so we record (via a git submodule)
a snapshot of whatever version of gnulib we're using,
and none of gnulib sources are in the libvirt repository.
The result is that we have as much reproducibility as when
we version-controlled imported copies of the gnulib sources,
but without the hassle of the manual process we used when
syncing with upstream.
Note that when you clone libvirt, you get only the libvirt
repository, but when you first run ./bootstrap, it clones
gnulib (at the SHA1 recorded via the submodule), creating
the .gnulib/ hierarchy. Then, the bootstrap script runs
gnulib-tool to populate gnulib/ with the files that make
up the selected modules.
Put the following in your ~/.gitconfig file.
[alias]
syncsub = submodule foreach git pull origin master
The update procedure is simple:
git syncsub
...build & test...
git commit -m 'gnulib: sync submodule to latest' .gnulib
* .gitmodules: New file.
* .gnulib: Initialize.
* bootstrap: Set up to use the new submodule.
Stop using --no-vc-files.
Don't remove .gitignore files.
Don't use or create .cvsignore.
Diagnose an invalid --gnulib-srcdir=DIR argument.
* build-aux/vc-list-files: Delete file, now pulled from gnulib.
* build-aux/useless-if-before-free: Likewise.
* po/POTFILES.in: Remove gnulib/lib/gai_strerror.c, since
it no longer contains translatable strings.
* gnulib/*: Remove gnulib/ hierarchy.
