Commit e8864b1b28c2 ("config: libintl/libiconv for gettext() detection")
added an empty config.rpath with a comment that the real one doesn't
work with libtool.
However, an empty config.rpath doesn't really work: eg. on FreeBSD,
where libintl is in /usr/local/lib, configure thinks that gettext
doesn't exist and NLS should be disabled, which currently isn't
supported in the source, and hence requires manual workaround to
directly link -lintl without relying on configure. config.rpath is
essential to let it be detected either in --prefix or using
--with-libintl-prefix.
I also don't see the mentioned issue with libtool flags applied to
compilation, it seems to work fine to pass LTLIBINTL to libtool. It's
unnecessary to include LTLIBICONV as the configure test will
automatically append that to LTLIBINTL if it is necessary to link with
libiconv.

`make distclean` removes an empty file config/config.rpath.
Avoid that by adding some text.
Also see e1245d83e9("Prevent `make distclean` removing 0 sized file").

Detect in autoconf whether `-lintl` and possibly `-liconv` are necessary
for translation functions like `gettext()`.
The actual autoconf code is just:
```
AM_ICONV
AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external])
LIBS="$LIBS $LTLIBINTL $LTLIBICONV"
```

The reason to check for `libiconv` and add it separately is that this is
sometimes necessary if users are linking statically.
The `config/*.m4` files were added by running `gettextize` and removing
everything else.
The empty file `config/config.rpath` is necessary to avoid an error with
some versions of autotools, see:
http://ramblingfoo.blogspot.com/2007/07/required-file-configrpath-not-found.html
The `config.rpath` copied by `gettextize` does not currently work, there
is some kind of missing interaction with `libtool` and it tries to apply
`libtool` flags to the compiler.
