.sql files are not following the usual translation workflow.
There is 1 file per language (in the term of language in installer/data/mysql/,
so not so much compared to the number of languages we really support (POs).
If you want to translate a sql file, you need to open a bug report, patch it,
wait for someone to SO/QA/push.
Also it's painful to support (dev POV), as if you want to add an AV, you have
to edit X .sql files, test them, (rebase), etc.
With only 1 sql file, at the root of installer dir (installer/data/mysq) the
translation will be done using the usual workflow (after a change to our
translator tool as we still do not support YAML file, but we do support .pref
which are YAML, so should not be too hard)
