    localedef: Fix bootstrapping on Ubuntu 16.04
    
    Glibc's stdlib.h defines various prototypes for GNU extensions that take
    a locale_t. Newer versions use locale_t directly and include an internal
    bits/types/locale_t.h in order to get its definition, but older versions
    include xlocale.h for that, for which our bootstrap version is empty.
    Moreover it expects to use the glibc-specific __locale_t type. Thus,
    provide dummy definitions of both types in order to ensure the
    prototypes don't give any errors, and guard against the header being
    inadvertently included between the bootstrapping namespace.h and
    un-namespace.h, where locale_t is #define'd.
    
    This header is not used when bootstrapping on FreeBSD and exists solely
    to stub out glibc's, so this should have no impact on FreeBSD hosts.
