This PR allows selecting the preferred locale for a user.
It also adds a middleware that sets the application locale to the user's preferred locale, or the system default (as specified by the browser in the
Accept-Language
header) if one isn't set.I've specified the supported locales in the config file, and this will be used for:
Changing the locale changes the language the user sees and the way in which dates and numbers are formatted in.
The application uses the fallback locale if a string doesn't have a translation defined for the given locale.
Going forward, if any new translation strings are added, the locale code should be added to the
supported_locales
config file.This change only affects the Dashboard.
