[Bug libc/686] New: [localedef] Implement toggle switches in LC_COLLATE section


Toggle switches are defined in locale/programs/locfile-kw.h
but not implemented.  Here is a patch to let localedef handle
'define', 'undef', 'ifdef', 'else' and 'endif' keywords.
This is very useful e.g. for locales which sort uppercase before
lowercase letters, or do not want backward direction in level 2.
Iso14651_t1 can be customized like
  ifdef LATIN_FORWARD
  order_start <LATIN>;forward;forward;forward;forward,position
  else
  order_start <LATIN>;forward;backward;forward;forward,position
  endif
so that these locales can define specific keywords and then
'copy "iso14651_t1"' instead of copying its contents.
