package: make bison a relocatable package
...
Suggested by David Barto
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-bison/2015-02/msg00004.html
and Victor Zverovich.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2018-10/msg00121.html
This is very easy to do, thanks to work by Bruno Haible in gnulib.
See "Supporting Relocation" in gnulib's documentation.
* bootstrap.conf: We need relocatable-prog and relocatable-script (for yacc).
* src/yacc.in: New.
* configure.ac, src/local.mk: Instantiate it.
* src/main.c, src/output.c (main, pkgdatadir): Use relocatable2.
* doc/bison.texi (FAQ): Document it.

README: work around a nasty behavior of gettext
...
`make update-po` runs:
package_gnu="$(PACKAGE_GNU)"; \
test -n "$$package_gnu" || { \
if { if (LC_ALL=C find --version) 2>/dev/null | grep GNU >/dev/null; then \
LC_ALL=C find -L $(top_srcdir) -maxdepth 1 -type f \
-size -10000000c -exec grep 'GNU @PACKAGE@' \
/dev/null '{}' ';' 2>/dev/null; \
else \
LC_ALL=C grep 'GNU @PACKAGE@' $(top_srcdir)/* 2>/dev/null; \
fi; \
} | grep -v 'libtool:' >/dev/null; then \
package_gnu=yes; \
else \
package_gnu=no; \
fi; \
}; \
and based on the result, put GNU or not in the following line from
bison.pot:
# This file is distributed under the same license as the GNU bison package.
It turns out that in my environment some log files had the 'GNU bison'
string (note the lower case), but in distcheck, these files are no
longer visible, so the generate bison.pot was different, and distcheck
failed because we try to update bison.pot, which is read only in
distcheck.
The heuristics should look accept 'GNU Bison', not just 'GNU bison'.
But let's please it to make sure we have our 'GNU'.
* README: Mention 'GNU bison'.

build: lower gettext requirements.
...
Bison was uselessly requiring the formatstring macros from
gettext, which resulted in mo files not being installed on systems
that perfectly supported Bison mo files. Lower the requirement.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-08/msg00006.html
* configure.ac: Require need-ngettext instead of
need-formatstring-macros.
Reported by Martin Jabocs.
Suggested by Bruno Haible.
* INSTALL: Restructure.
(Internationalization): New.

* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove Makefile.cfg and Makefile.maint.
* maint.mk (announcement): Don't list bison as a bootstrap tool so
that announcements don't claim we bootstrapped with whatever bison
happened to be in PATH. Add flex as a bootstrap tool.
* Makefile.maint: Remove, previously replaced by maint.mk.
