APR_UINT64_FMT_T in localised format strings

Localised strings must consist entirely of literals; they cannot
contain preprocessor macros. For example, svnserve/serve.c:2234 has

     return svn_error_createf(SVN_ERR_RA_SVN_MALFORMED_DATA, NULL,
                              _("Invalid move_behavior value %"
                                APR_UINT64_T_FMT " in log command"),
                              move_behavior_param);

I suppose the current practice is to format the numbers to separate
strings and include them using %s in the localised string. (If it were
up to me, I'd just make %lld (etc) work in all format strings and be
done with it.)

xgettext complains about (in trunk):

libsvn_fs_x/changes.c:252
libsvn_fs_x/index.c:1228
libsvn_fs_x/noderevs.c:471
libsvn_fs_x/noderevs.c:723
