coreutils build failure due to missing gl_INLINE dependency

[Jim Meyering]

I tried to build coreutils using the very latest from gnulib and got
link failures due to missing xcharalloc, used by e.g., quotearg.o.
I tracked it back to the lack of a HAVE_INLINE definition in config.h,
which in turn was due to a defect in the gnulib xalloc module.  It did
not arrange to use the gl_INLINE macro that provides HAVE_INLINE.
It *did* list m4/inline.m4 as one of its "Files:", but didn't do anything
else.

Since two other modules (oset and list) also include m4/inline.m4
without a provision to use gl_INLINE, it's clear that it's worthwhile
to make a module out of this inline.m4 file, so I did that.

But the following patch didn't solve the coreutils build problem, due
to a problem with inline.m4 itself.  That's the topic of the next message.

I've checked in these changes:

        * modules/inline: New file/module.
        * modules/xalloc (Files): Remove m4/inline.m4.
        (Depends-on): Add inline, instead.
        * modules/oset: Likewise.
        * modules/list: Likewise.
