Markus Heiser b9cf3c82a1 [mod] add i18n infrastructure for SearXNG message files (searxng.msg)
With this patch ``searxng.msg`` files can be added to SearXNG.  In
``searxng.msg`` files messages can be defined which are not captured by babel's
gettext, like the generic names of the categories or messages that are stored in
constants.

Translation takes place on weblate.bubu1.eu_.
Translations which has been added by translators on the weblate.bubu1.eu_ UI are
committed to Weblate's counterpart of the SearXNG *origin* repository which is
located at ``https://weblate.bubu1.eu/git/searxng/searxng``.
There is no need to clone this repository, :ref:`SearXNG Weblate workflow` take
care of the synchronization with the *origin*. To avoid merging commits from
the counterpart directly on the ``master`` branch of *SearXNG origin*, a *pull
request* (PR) is created by this workflow.
Weblate monitors the `translations branch`_, not the ``master`` branch. This
branch is an `orphan branch`_, decoupled from the master branch (we already know
orphan branches from the ``gh-pages``). The `translations branch`_ contains
only the
- ``translation/messages.pot`` and the
- ``translation/*/messages.po`` files, nothing else.
.. _SearXNG Weblate workflow:
.. figure:: translation.svg
SearXNG's PR workflow to be in sync with Weblate
Sync from *origin* to *weblate*: using ``make weblate.push.translations``
For each commit on the ``master`` branch of SearXNG *origin* the GitHub job
:origin:`babel / Update translations branch
<.github/workflows/integration.yml>` checks for updated translations.
Sync from *weblate* to *origin*: using ``make weblate.translations.commit``
Every Friday, the GitHub workflow :origin:`babel / create PR for additons from
weblate <.github/workflows/translations-update.yml>` creates a PR with the
updated translation files:
- ``translation/messages.pot``,
- ``translation/*/messages.po`` and
- ``translation/*/messages.mo``
