doc: explain how to compile with language support

Now that the setup in configure.ac have been cleaned, moved the original
documentation from the 'INSTALL-WMAKER' file into the dedicated doc
'README.i18n' and updated it.

The information is completely removed from 'INSTALL-WMAKER' with an
invitation to see the new i18n doc in order to keep that file relatively
small and to avoid duplicating information, which is always harder to
maintain.

LOCALES/INTERNATIONALIZATION
============================
Window Maker has national language support. To enable national language
support, you must compile Window Maker with some additional parameters.
0 - You must have the GNU gettext package installed. It can be
obtained at ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gettext-nnn.tar.gz
Steps 1 to 3 can be skipped if you use the Install script.
1 - You have to select the languages you want to support. Set the
LINGUAS to the list of locales you want. English is always
supported. Example:
setenv LINGUAS "pt ja de"
in csh
or
export LINGUAS;LINGUAS="pt ja de"
in sh
The list of supported locales can be found in po/README.
English is the default language.
Read po/README if you wish to translate and maintain locale files
for other languages.
2 - Additionally, if your language uses multi-byte characters, such
as Japanese or Korean, you must set the MultiByteText option to YES
in ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMGLOBAL
3 - Configure, build and install Window Maker normally.
Window Maker has national language support. The procedure to enable national
language support is described in the dedicated README.i18n file.
4 - To select a particular locale at run-time you must set the LANG
environment variable to the locale you want. For example, if you want to set
