[Koha-devel] externalising translator and etc

[Clay Fouts]

I like the idea of separating out the .po files if for no other reason than
it expediting "grep -r". Reducing the overall repo footprint is also
helpful. It doesn't matter much for a single instance, but it does add up
when you have dozens of them.
