Translations

Since 17.04, the translations (messages, translated documentation, localized data) are included in the tarballs but *only* for Frameworks 5 applications.

Also, since this release does not contain anymore kdelibs4-based tarballs, there are no kde-l10n* tarballs as well. They used to contain only translations for kdelibs4-based tarballs starting from 17.04, so they are not needed anymore.
