gettext documentation patch to acknowledge Sun's contribution

[Paul Eggert]

This message follows up on a recent thread in comp.unix.programmer:

http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=Pine.SOL.4.58.0311071119420.10310%40zaphod

where Rich Teer pointed out that the GNU gettext documentation's
"history of gettext" section should acknowledge Sun's UniForum
proposal that originally suggested the core part of the gettext API.
Here's a proposed patch to do that.  I checked this addition against
my 1994 email archives of the discussion in question.

        * gettext.texi (History): Give a tip of the hat to Sun's
        UniForum proposal.
