[PATCH] maint: use a git submodule for gnulib

[Jim Meyering]

Here's the patch to add a submodule.

The only trick, for me, was to learn that when I want to
update coreutils' gnulib SHA1, I just run "cd gnulib; git pull"
and then commit the result.

Once you pull this, you should rerun bootstrap
however you normally do it.
