tools: don't gitignore base64 config.h
The file is checked into git. Ignoring it causes a very non-obvious way of breaking tarball builds: 1. Download and unpack tarball 2. Check the sources into git with `git init; git add .; git commit -a` 3. Clean the source tree with `git clean -dfx` 4. Run `./configure && make` 5. Observe build failure because config.h is missing Fixes: #47638 PR-URL: #48174 Reviewed-By: Michaël Zasso <targos@protonmail.com> Reviewed-By: Richard Lau <rlau@redhat.com> Reviewed-By: Marco Ippolito <marcoippolito54@gmail.com> Reviewed-By: Luigi Pinca <luigipinca@gmail.com> Reviewed-By: Yagiz Nizipli <yagiz@nizipli.com>
