Bug#520255: gnome-user-guide: too big -- 50 MB is too much

This is a partly rewritten version of localepurge.  It is more modular
and thus much more readable.  Still needs modularisation and
optimisation, but it is better than the previous version I sent.

Still does not purge Kde files.  I see that multilingual help files are
under /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML, but I guess there are others.
