[PATCH binutils] gprof: add no-c-format comment for msgid '%time'


The %time column heading in call graph profiles looks to xgettext like
a printf format.  When translators are confident to really translate
it, the msgfmt program complains that the translation is malformed,
which prevents the translation robot (of the Translation Project) from
accepting the translation.

But this is really just a plain string.  Let xgettext know so by
adding an xgettext:no-c-format comment to override the auto-detection.

How about this patch?  Untested.
