    tools/gnulib: use exact directory copy for install
    
    The python implementation of gnulib-tool
    uses a hidden file as the independent main function.
    
    A copy with glob ('*') does not include hidden files
    at the top level directory, so use whole directory copy
    instead and remove the patch for a non-hidden python file.
    
    Ensure the directory does not already exist
    by attempting uninstall first to remove it
    and by not using "install" to create a directory.
    
    Rename the clean target to uninstall, as it handles
    the staging directory and not the build directory.
    
    Removed:
     - 021-python-main.patch
