Overhaul the way packages can ask for "msgfmt". If a package needs
msgfmt, then it should set the following in the package Makefile: USE_TOOLS+= msgfmt To deal with message files that use the "msgid_plural" statement, which isn't supported in NetBSD<=3.x and also in gettext<=0.10.35, we determine if the built-in "msgfmt" is sufficiently new enough to understand "msgid_plural". If it isn't, then we use the msgfmt.sh script to transform the msgid_plural statements to an equivalent construct that's understood by older msgfmt tools. The msgfmt.sh script is a straightforward translation of the original perl script msgfmt.pl script by Julio M. Merino Vidal into shell and awk, which are more lightweight dependencies than perl. We remove the USE_MSGFMT_PLURALS bits in gettext-lib/builtin.mk as they are made obsolete by the new code in mk/tools/msgfmt.mk. BUILD_USE_MSGFMT is still supported but will be removed in a separate commit.
