[PATCH] Carry the gnulib getcwd backport as a patch

[Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@ericsson.com>]

Commit

  e2fc52e7457 ("Fix PR gdb/23558: Use system's 'getcwd' when cross-compiling GDB")

backported some changes from a future gnulib version to our import.
However, this means that every time someone wants to change our gnulib
import (e.g. add a module), they must make sure not to include that
backported change.  It also means that someone running the
update-gnulib.sh script without changes will get some diffs and wonder
why.

Instead, I suggest we carry that backport as a patch applied by the
update-gnulib.sh script after running the import tool.  It will make it
clear what backport or local modification we have and should make
running update-gnulib.sh give a reproducible result.

There is a hunk in the configure file in this patch, this is because the
commit that backported the getcwd bits didn't include the re-generated
configure.

Note: you'll need this patch as well to get deterministic results:

  Generate aclocal-m4-deps.mk more deterministically and portably.

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix PR gdb/23558: Use system's 'getcwd' when cross-compiling
+ GDB
+
+This is a backport of a gnulib fix for the following bug:
+
+  https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23558
+
+The problem reported there is about the replacement of 'getcwd' when
+cross-compiling GDB.  With our current gnulib copy, the mechanism for
+deciding whether to use the system's 'getcwd' or gnulib's version is
+too simplistic and pessimistic, so when cross-compiling we always end
+up using gnulib's version, which has a limitation: it cannot handle
+the situation when the parent directory doesn't have read permissions.
+
+The solution is to backport the following gnulib commit:
+
+  commit a96d2e67052c879b1bcc5bc461722beac75fc372
+  Author: Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
+  Date:   Thu Aug 23 21:13:19 2018 +0200
