Scripts

• sh ./merge will parse the i18n() calls in the *.qml files and write it to the template.pot file. Then it will merge any changes into the *.po language files.
• sh ./build will convert the *.po files to it's binary *.mo version and move it to contents/locale/... which will bundle the translations in the *.plasmoid without needing the user to manually install them.
• sh ./plasmoidlocaletest will run ./build then plasmoidviewer (part of plasma-sdk).
