rules.mak: remove $(sort) from extract-libs

Duplicate removal was added to extract-libs in order to avoid including
the same library multiple times into the linking command line; this could
potentially happen when using "foo.mo-libs" (which adds the library to
all components, causing it to appear N times if the module is composed
of N objects).  However, sorting and removing duplicates causes problems
with static linking, and also with space-separated linker options as
found in some Mac OS X packaging systems.  Furthermore, the "optimization"
is really a non-problem since we do not expect .mo modules to be composed
of many files.
