[MPlayer-dev-eng] [patch] [2nd try] configure pointing to translated doc's

[Torinthiel]

Ok, so here is second version. Id doesn't add much complexity to
configure, only two extra lines. And I think that if we have
documentation then we should use it ;). Or more specific, I think that
if configure knows user wants a certain language and documentation in
that language exists then it should point for tips to that documentation
and not always to English one.

It would be even nicer if we could add making configure output messages
in given language and make compiler warnings also point to translated
docs, but it would mean moving language test before everything else and
really some more complexity. (or depending on GNU gettext which is IMHO
a bad idea).
