havelib: Fix 'configure --help' output


From: Bruno Haible
Subject: havelib: Fix 'configure --help' output
Date: Tue, 05 Jul 2022 00:52:24 +0200

The --help output of gettext's configure contains these lines:
$ ./configure --help | grep libuni
  --with-included-libunistring  use the libunistring parts included here
  --with-libunistring-prefix[=DIR]  search for PACKLIBS in DIR/include and 
DIR/lib
  --without-libunistring-prefix     don't search for PACKLIBS in includedir and 
libdir

The reference to PACKLIBS is a bug; the correct output ought to be:
  --with-included-libunistring  use the libunistring parts included here
  --with-libunistring-prefix[=DIR]  search for libunistring in DIR/include and 
DIR/lib
  --without-libunistring-prefix     don't search for libunistring in includedir 
and libdir

This patch fixes it. Apparently the bug dates back to 2008.
