texinfo: several changes to build without zlib and ncurses headers on host

Texinfo very cleverly detects cross-compilation and builds host versions
of the texinfo binaries it requires to bootstrap the build, however this
was causing the host to require ncurses and zlib libraries and headers.

Instead, since we require texinfo to be installed on the host, remove this
feature from the texinfo configure.ac (disable-native-tools.patch).

Further, fix texinfo to link with newer binutils (link-zip.patch) and to
generate translations with newer gettext (gettext-macros.patch).

With this patch I am able to build texinfo on Fedora without ncurses-devel
and zlib-devel installed.

This fixes [YOCTO #1483]
