attribute/resource method in locale kit catalogs
* Only load the embedded catalog if nothing else was found, so it can easily
be overridden
* Change the resource type to 'CADA' (CAtalog DAta) for embedded catalogs, and
use a hash of the language code as the resource ID. This allows multiple
languages to be stored in the same file and does not interfere with the user
storing his own BMessages as resources.

Instead of computing the mime signature and giving this to the catalog system,
give an entry_ref instead. The default catalog add-on can thus look at the
right place when searching local catalogs (embedded as resources, or stored
as files next to the executable.
* This allows different versions of the same app to each have their own
catalog set,
* And also make the embedded/local catalog searching work for add-ons and
libs, instead it only worked for apps because of a getAppInfo call.
Fix cpufrequency to make use of it properly (that wouldhave worked without the
change, but nowit's mandatory, since loading a catlog by mimesignature is not
possible anymore).
Should fix#8037.

* refactored private/mutable stuff out of LocaleRoster into MutableLocaleRoster
* moved management of Locale/Time settings file and broadcasting of any changes
out of preflets and into MutableLocaleRoster
* added proper sorting to the listviews of the Locale preflet
* the Time preflet no longer overlaps long timezone names into the actual time
* several fixes with respect to leaking ICU objects, esp. in BCountry
* the locale roster no longer passes out references to its own BCountry object,
but uses copies, instead - this makes locking superfluous, as the clients'
BCountry objects can no longer be changed by the setting a new default
country in the locale roster
* removed pretty useless POSIX-style symbol fetching from BCountry - if we
need that at all, it should live in the dedicated formatter classes
* adjusted readonlybootprompt, dstcheck and Deskbar to the changed Locale API
* refactored existing Time-formatter into TimeUnitFormat and DurationFormat
(the latter of which is now used by AboutSystem)
* added stubs for Date, DateTime and Time formatters
* lots of coding style fixes throughout the Locale Kit and the Locale and Time
preflets
This will probably break most external apps making use of the Locale Kit - it
does break WebPositive.

B_TRANSLATE-macros when running collectcatkeys, simplifying the regex a lot
* added B_TRANSLATE_NOCOLLECT...-macros for the case where a non-literal
string shall be translated, but not picked up by collectcatkeys

* made locale build tools shut up about anything except warnings or errors

* Adjust the B_TRANSLATE macros to take this into account
* Adjust collectkatkeys to take it into account too
Thanks to Ingo for explaining me all the technical details about hiding things in shared objects.

* Hide the CatalogStub::GetCatalog method so that if liblocalestub.a is missing from a localized image, it will not try to steal the catalog of another one.

* Remove the old one from the locale librairy, with some cleanup
Known regressions :
* readonlybootprompt will no longer update the locale settings : the
method used messed with internal undocumented things
* external localized apps (webpositive for example) will not run
anymore.

* Applications don't have to declare BCatalog fCatalog themselves, it's now done automatically
* Libs and add-ons can be localized just the same way (except static libraries)
For now this new system is yet disabled as I'm looking for some peer review before going on. To enable it you have to define B_TRANSLATE_USE_NEW_MACROS in each file doing catalog access. This will not stay, I'll update the
other apps to use it.
The linking in jamfiles must be not only with liblocale.so, but also liblocalestub.a. Not sure how to handle this for user-side applications. Libraries are also required to provide a MIME signature to use any catalog.
The locale preflet is updated to the new system (as a test). Othe rapps will follow if everyone is ok with this approach.

* Added secondary macros, B_TRANSLATE* to replace TR*
* For new localization patches, please use the newer B_TRANSLATE*
* B_TRANSLATE* and TR* are functional during the transition to the new macros
* Autmatic whitespace cleanup

* Introduce a system-wide localization catalog used for strings hidden deep in some libraries. Add special API to get it.
* string_for_size is the first to make use of this system wide catalog. This allows to have a fully localized DriveSetup.
* As a side effect, tracker also uses it. It now requires liblocale.so.

-Some style fixes (mostly whitespace)
-Switch to the short language list and make it build again. seems to have trouble with BStringByteSink and utf8, or is it just my build env having encoding problems ?

work to do, but it's about time to give this code more exposure.

* integrating most of the locale kit into the build (and image)
* removed LocaleBuild.h and _IMPEXP_LOCALE since that does not make
sense for elf (which usually exports all symbols anyway)
* added a couple of locale kit related pseudo targets for convenience
Hey, some of that stuff already seems to work :-)
