Support multiple languages

[wheresalice]

Overview

While we are currently wrapping strings with gettext(), we are not actually setting the language based on the user's language choice. Nor do we support any language other than en_gb.

Scope

Update views to set a language based on Member.language.

Update documentation on how to add additional languages.

If you have the skills, provide an additional language in order to test this.

Acceptance Criteria

• All strings are shown in the user's language of choice

Questions/Assumptions

• How do we test this without providing translations?
• Can we do some static code analysis looking for strings not wrapped with gettext()?

How do we test this without providing translations?

No need for the test suite language to be a real language - pig latin or lorem should be fine?
