CDE has relied upon catgets() implementations following a relaxed
interpretation of the XPG internationalization standard that ignored
-1, the standard error value returned by catopen, as the catalog
argument. However, this same behavior causes segmentation faults with
the musl C library.
This patch:
- Centralizes (with the exception of ToolTalk) all calls to catopen(),
catgets(), and catclose() through MsgCat within the DtSvc library.
- Prevents calls to catgets() and catclose() that rely upon
undefined behavior.
- Eliminates a number of bespoke catgets() wrappers, including multiple
redundant caching implementations designed to work around a design
peculiarity in HP/UX.
- Eases building CDE without XPG internationalization support by providing
the appropriate macros.
Fixes the following warning:

This patch removes #include <keysymdef.h> whenever not needed,
and adds #define XK_MISCALLANY in the source code where required.
According to the spec, blank lines in message catalogs or lines
beginning with '$ ' are valid comments.
However, there were many cases where lines in the message catalogs
contained just a single '$', without the required space after it.
Under linux, this caused 126766 error lines (in my builds) of the
form:
... unknown directive `': line ignored
This also causes gencat to exit with a non-0 exit code. Even though
gencat says it ignores the line, it really doesn't.
An early porting change to programs/localized/util/merge.c was made to
ignore this return value on linux. This hack has now been removed.
Build logs are a lot smaller and cleaner now.
