qemu already unconditionally depends on glib-2.0 which has a hard
dependency on gettext-native, so this wouldn't slow down the builds.

However, qemu itself depends on gettext utilities only when gtk+ is enabled:

https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/Makefile#L743

so I'll move the dependency into gtk+ PACKAGECONFIG.
