Interpolation API #8

I once worked on an internal tool very similar to this, cool to see you working on it as a gem!

Just wanted to drop that it probably already works out of the box if you use string substitution like so:

irb(main):001> "Hello %{name}" % { name: "Dennis" }
=> "Hello Dennis"

Thanks for the input! That's a neat trick indeed. I learnt this from the ruby-gettext docs as well.

There still some thinking needed to know how to get there. In this example 

_ "%{count} message", count: 2

count is both needed for pluralization and interpolation. I'd like to have a simple interface to translation, yet it has accomodate for several features in the background.
