Subject: [PATCH] Fix autogen.sh failing to find gettext

...which was preventing proper ./configure generation and making build from
git sources impossible. Now it should look for gettext inside of ./m4/*
before trying to get it from system directories.

Running autogen.sh still produces some warnings about missing gettext
variables and errors about missing 'Makefile.am' files
but './configure && make' should succeed anyway without any issues.

https://github.com/joewing/jwm/issues/658#issuecomment-3243723531

Tested on latest ArchLinux with:
gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.26
automake (GNU automake) 1.18.1
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.72

also tested on Ubuntu 25.04 with:
gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.23.1
automake (GNU automake) 1.17
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.72
