Instead of mixing both intltool and gettext, which not always work
correctly together, this patch obsoletes intltool and uses only
gettext, which includes support for translating XML files with ITS
rules.
See migration steps for GNOME projects here:
https://wiki.gnome.org/MigratingFromIntltoolToGettext
The gettext ITS rules for polkit policy files are imported from the
upstream polkit repository. We don't use the polkit-installed rule
files yet because there is no tagged release that contains those files
yet, so we cannot build-depend on any specific polkit version.

The '--with-polkit' configure switch now supports more options than just yes
or no:
* strict: Active user needs to explicitly authenticate when peforming an
operation defined in the Device.Control, Messaging, Location or Contacts
interfaces. Polkit policy is set to 'auth_self_keep'.
* permissive: Active user doesn't need to explicitly authenticate when
peforming an operation defined in the Device.Control, Messaging, Location or
Contacts interfaces. Polkit policy is set to 'yes'.
* none: don't use polkit.
If '--with-polkit' is not given, usage will be automatically decided based on
the presence of the Polkit headers in the system (if headers found, strict
policy will be applied, otherwise none).
Also:
* '--with-polkit' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=strict'
* '--with-polkit=yes' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=strict'
* '--with-polkit=no' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=none'
* '--without-polkit' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=none'
By default, ModemManager will always apply the strict policy, in order to
protect the user from unwanted operations in the modem (e.g. getting the PIN
locked forever after wrong PIN/PUK unlock attempts).
