Remove TT statement placeholders from translatable strings

The translation message catalogs contain a lot of Template Toolkit
statements in the messages. They bloat the message lengths, and
add unnecessary complications for translators, making errors
far more likely.

For example, there's no need to have "INCLUDE 'opac-bottom.inc'"
show up as a placeholder in the messages.

Before this patch, the top 5 placeholders in the catalogs are:
   1750   END
   1429   IF
    647   ELSE
    263   ELSIF
    252   INCLUDE

After this patch, the placeholders are only variables.
The top 5 is:
     32   total
     22   searchfield
     20   bibliotitle
     19   surname
     19   OPACBaseURL

Use the following incantation to get the stats:
 grep -E '^#\. %[0-9]+\$s: ' po/xx-YY-*.po | cut -d':' -f 3- | sed -e 's/^
*\(IF\|ELSIF\|CASE\|SWITCH\|INCLUDE\|USE\|SET\|PROCESS\|BLOCK\|FOREACH\|UNLESS\)
*.*$/  \1 /g' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

The number of separate msgid's does not change very much:
19430 before the patch, 19995 afterwards.
