order libc.pot by file

[Bruno Haible]

Hi Ulrich,

Translating libc.pot is unnecessarily hard, because the translator's
brain has to constantly switch between RPC terms, NIS terms, and regex
terms. (Using current tools like po-mode or kbabel, the translator
deals with the messages in the order in which they appear in the pot
file.) It's easier if all messages coming from the same source file
are nearby.
