maint: Update to newer gnulib
Gnulib has improved stack overflow detection (the c-stack module now uses gnulib's stripped-down libsigsegv on more platforms, without having to install GNU libsigsegv); with this update, GNU Linux systems get stack overflow protection without an external library dependency. * gnulib: Update to latest. * NEWS: Mention the impact.
