Rich Felker e4fc9ad780 search locale name variants for gettext translations 
often translations will be named only by language, whereas locale
names may also include a territory code, modifier, and codeset
portion. previously, only translations exactly matching the locale
name were loaded. this was a major usability issue, requiring
workarounds like symlinks or tweaking of the locale name.

with these changes, gettext now searches for translations by first
removing the codeset portion of the locale name, then trying the
remainder in full, with modifier (@mod) removed, with territory code
(_XX) removed, and with both removed.

part of the reason gettext lacked support for searching fallbacks
before is that the candidate pathname for a translation file was
constructed on each call and used as the key to lookup an
already-mapped translation file. this was very costly/inefficient. we
now use the tuple of textdomain binding pointer, locale map pointer,
and integer category id as the key for looking up a translation file
mapping.

based on patch by He X.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
