Localization Support

[chirag-jn]

We need support for adding localization in the app in multiple languages as well as vet the translations for their correctness.

Google Sheet with the current translations:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NAl8xWGDRj6MmLHKyESONAAyudOHdFnSbaqF1Pr28sE/edit?usp=sharing

This sheet doesn't update itself and has to be maintained.

[chirag-jn]

Current translations needed: French and Spanish

Related issues: #32 #546 #537
Related PR: #545

[chirag-jn]

Please refer file LANGUAGES.md to understand how to add a new language to the app.

@chirag-jn

[chirag-jn]

We have support for three langauges at the moment, English, French and Spanish. If you want, you can try adding another language by creating an appropriate folder. You can use the Translation Editor in Studio for this.

[chirag-jn]

For any language you add, you must be able to verify if the translations are correct or not.

Ok thank you @chirag-jn
In which String.xml folder I should add a language?

[chirag-jn]

For every language, a new values folder is created and we add the corresponding strings.xml there.

@chirag-jn Everyone here is trying to add translations, but can we ask users if they want to contribute too. We can use any third party service and directly connect them with this github repo. For ex, crowdin. So, at the end this can be automated also. Your views ?
