[PD] choose language

I have visited this problem some time ago, and these were my (more or less
accurate) findings:
- There are language strings in the C code as well as in Tcl
- In Tcl there is a straightforward way to redefine the language, but I
haven't found a way to change the actual strings on the display without
having to restart Pd
- I have no idea how it goes on the C side :)
- My impression is that this may go beyond the scope of a plugin
