Header navigation text cannot be customised or translated #1682

The header contains hardcoded English strings in the template:

This means this text cannot be customised or translated (for example into Welsh) whilst using the Nunjucks template.

Edit: split the customising of 'menu' into https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-frontend/issues/1904

Also in the footer, the visually hidden text "Support Links" and the copyright text, which would be "Mae’r holl gynnwys ar gael dan Drwydded y Llywodraeth Agored v3.0, ac eithrio lle nodir yn wahanol © Hawlfraint y Goron" in Welsh
