Localization / translation platform #118

I'd recommend Weblate as a translating platofrm for the community to translate any part of the chess / app, strings, words, website etc. It's much better than the manual method of translating strings, works well with github and you exactly know what strings still need to get translated etc. Many opensource projects, apps etc. use it and Weblate itself is opensource and you can host it yourself in case you wanted to. For Opensource projects, the use of Weblate is completely free and hosted by them, you just need to write a form to request their hosting of the translations for the platform on the Hosting page (gratis Plan). Then you can put a translation progress widget to github page so anyone can see the progress of language translations and click it to translate/improve the strings if it's not complete.

https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/dreamchess/ is already on Hosted Weblate, so a lot of synergy there.
