This tool which is useful for scripts that create flash images with
multiple partitions. The host-parted package can do this too, but is
missing a number of features that the gptfdisk program has for dealing
with GPT.
The interactive gdisk and curses based sgdisk aren't built. Just the
scriptable tool sgdisk. The target package allows configuring which
tools are built, but this seem unnecessarily complex for the host
tool.
[Thomas: minor reformatting tweaks.]

We're explicitly linking against libintl/libiconv if enabled when linking
statically, but weren't ensuring that those libraries had already been built
before gptfdisk leading to linker issues.

Drop the ICU patch and ICU support since it's no longer necessary.

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.
As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.
This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.
Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

In addition to the command-line tool gdisk and the interactive tool
sgdisk, gptfdisk also provides a ncurses based tool, cgdisk. This
commit adds support for building and installing this tool.

Instead of always disabling the UTF16 support, make it
configurable. When ICU is available, enable UTF16 support, otherwise
disable it.

The installation step was not giving the full destination path even
though it was using -D, and it was forgetting to explicitly specify
the permissions of the file to install. This commit fixes both of
these minor issues.

$(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) should be passed as $(MAKE) argument, not in
the environment. We can then remove the redefined CC and LD variables
that were useless. We also take this opportunity to pass
$(TARGET_MAKE_ENV) in the environment of make.

Until now, selecting just the gptfdisk package wouldn't do anything.
It wouldn't build anything at all, and wouldn't install anything.
This is rather odd.
So now, we ensure that at least one of the two tools that gptfdisk can
build and install is selected. This allows use to factorize a bit the
select of util-linux in Config.in, and remove the if condition in the
makefile that was preventing the package from being built if no tools
was selected.
