[crossfire] Multilinguism support

[Nicolas Weeger]

Hello.


I've rewritten part of the i18n support the server had, to make it easier to 
figure what message is used in the source.


When you need to find a string, to display or use in a buffer, please use 

i18n(who, "English version of the message, with the %d placeholders");


This will enable to write translations in various languages, through the 
"message.<code>" files.


Note: currently, translations can't change the order of arguments, because 
snprintf doesn't support that in the C99 standard.



I plan on thinking about archetype, map, quests and various translations, too 
:)

Any idea or suggestions welcome, of course.


For the record, I looked at gettext, but I'm not sure it can support multiple 
languages like we need (many languages at the same time).




Regards

Nicolas
