From Transifex

This change is not needed after the real fix:
"its: Fix translation matching rules"

So revert it to avoid having conflicting versions of the same
translation in Transifex and checked out.

This reverts commit a4aaf578.

Whereas gettext automatically gets the its file loaded through the
GETTEXTDATADIRS environment variable, itstool needs the path to the its
file passed manually.

This fixes some fields being translated even though the its file
declares them as not translatable.

Add a few dependencies for regenerating the .pot file.

Declare freedesktop.org.xml.in to be translatable directly, without
extracting translatable strings from a .pot which we then translate,
which we then need to merge into translations.

be@latin contained a translated for the expanded CGM acronym. There
doesn't seem to be a way to avoid have the translation merged back into
the XML file, so remove the translation instead.

It's not parsed:
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-maintainer-mode

Use a correct default prefix, and use sudo to do the installation,
because if you need the instructions, then you'll need them to be
precise.

Nobody that needs this information will be able to set it up properly
(we'd also need to modify XDG_DATA_DIRS, amongst other things).

libmagic is also a rich database of MIME type magic signatures.

Merge the description from https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/shared-mime-info/

Including the new Groovy mime-type, and the older COBOL one.

To verify that the modified spec has a valid syntax, as done in:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-specs/blob/master/web-export/update.py

As implemented in Qt:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/242601

Otherwise "make distcheck" will throw:
/bin/sh: line 9: find: command not found
and not even register that something went wrong.

*.bin is too generic to be used for specific file types. As the file
managers should be able to detect the Sega CD and Sega Saturn disc
images by magic, we shouldn't be losing any convenience.

Closes: #101

None of the acronyms we've added were ever translated in the 15-odd
years when they could have been, so remove the feature.

It said "Sass" in the description, which is another type of CSS
preprocessor definition.

One didn't have any glob or magic, so was effectively never used. Make
it an alias of the other one.

They were overly long.

We don't use titlecase in mime-type descriptions, they're supposed to be
lower case, save for expanded acronyms (when they're relatively well
known) or "brands" (software names and makers).

Closes: #57

eg. "Adobe PageMaker" is a piece of software, "Adobe PageMaker document"
is a file.

Having install-binPROGRAMS as a dependency of install-data-hook is not
correct, as it causes the installation of programs to be executed
twice, and those two installations are racing with each other, causing
random installation failures.

In addition, this dependency is not needed: the install-data-hook
calls the update-mime-database program in one of two ways:

 - When cross-compiling, using the program pointed by
   UPDATE_MIME_DATABASE, which is already built, and is not installed
   by install-binPROGRAMS.

 - When compiling natively, using the update-mime-database from the
   build directory, so there is no need to depend on
   install-binPROGRAMS.

This patch is similar to the patch used by the Yocto Project at
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/plain/meta/recipes-support/shared-mime-info/shared-mime-info/install-data-hook.patch
