First proof of concept, fixing the original bug for Russian.
Added gramps/gen/datehandler/_datestrings.py, to hold
all the localized strings, with genitive/nominative
context as appropriate.
Remaining TODO:
1) other languages
2) expand the localized string into RE-style
concat via |, so that displayer uses the 1st instance,
and the parser uses the whole RE. Write the corresponding _().
3) same with short names as with long names
4) harmonize with _grampslocale code reading the names from
elsewhere for Julian/Gregorian months
5) expand to other calendars (non-Julian/non-Gregorian)
6) obsolete the public attributes in dd and replace with accessors

This reverts commit db9a64ef7da5f26c586452c1a84a96675991d9a4.
This was tested with "runtest.sh" only, but turns out things
are broken under GUI. I'll investigate on a private branch,
reverting meanwhile to unblock the affected plugins on trunk.

Now that #7061 is done, all the old code should no longer use
User.begin_.../step_.../end_progress directly any more, preferring
the context manager instead.

PEP-0008 reserves the use of a trailing underscore for names
which conflict with Python keywords, which this doesn't.
The goal is to have a permanent name which is unique across
the gramps namespace, since it is defined (in po/genpot.sh
and po/update_po.py) as a keyword to flag strings to be put
into the translation "catalog" file (gramps.pot).
The new keyword "trans_text" is still unique. (Also "_T_".)
svn: r22201
Only one base translation per locale. To set up a different locale
on any axis (locale, domain, directory, or languages) instantiate a
secondary locale by calling GrampsLocale() with the appropriate
arguments.
svn: r21968
set_translation() to the Report class
Add a new module stdoptions to gen.plug.report with function
add_localization_option(). The intent of stdoptions is to reduce the code-copying among reports; this is the first bit.
svn: r21966
With GrampsLocale.sort_key (for strxfrm and conv*_tosrtkey) and
GrampsLocale.strcoll.
If ICU is available will use the correct ICU::Collator for the locale,
otherwise falls back to locale.strxfrm -- for which it temporarily
changes the LC_COLLATE locale.
svn: r21275
Permits sorting by localized language name.
Also hides the language code, which the user doesn't really care about.
Removes get_language_string from libtranslate.py, no longer needed.
svn: r21236
GrampsLocale is effectively a singleton: An instance is created in
const.py and retrieved everywhere.
Translations are provided via Translations classes, which are derived
from GNUTranslations and NullTranslations to provide extra functions
like sgettext.
svn: r21143
Reflecting discussion on gramps-devel about their affecting more than
just translations.
Provide for a master GrampsLocale instance to be retrieved from
const.py, set by grampsapp.
