RKWard | Reduce a bit the libintl usage (!4)

[Thomas Friedrichsmeier]

Thomas Friedrichsmeier commented:


I didn't know about i18ndX. That's pretty nice. One thing this change breaks is ```rk.switch.frontend.language()``` (```RKMessageCatalog::switchLanguage()```). Arguably that may not be a totally central feature, but it is fairly useful for running automated tests on rkward plugins in "C" locale (while developing the test in a translated UI).

Can that feature be saved, somehow? (To test it, run e.g. ```rk.switch.frontend.language("uk")``` in the "R Console" window, then select Analysis->Basic stats).

I guess that should be possible, indeed, with KF5. However the only immediate benefit is going to be to avoid the direct dependency on libintl. The backend process produces very few user visible strings (just the i18n() uses in rkrbackend.cpp).
