This patch series improve the handling of translations.
Use the gettext tools to:
- extract the messages from all the various sources
- merge old translations with the new catalog
- build translations as mo files
- merge translations to desktop, and AppStream files
This makes gettext a mandatory dependency when installing, replacing
intltool.
To make sure the translations are updated in Weblate, commit the
catalog in the repository.
As related (i18n) changes: drop two translations that are totally
empty.
Changes from v3:
- remove the separate virt-manager-meta catalog
- drop empty translations
Changes from v2:
- require gettext 0.19.6
- use gettext to extract & merge translations in desktop & AppStream
files
- use pathlib instead of recursive glob
- update also documentation and spec files
- minor code changes
Changes from v1:
- fix issue in the Python sources extraction; regenerate the catalog
accordingly
