Vadim Zeitlin 3f66f6a5b3 Remove all lines containing cvs/svn "$Id$" keyword. 
This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the
correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's
confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As
expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive
and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in
the first place, just remove all these lines.

If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler.

Closes #14487.

/**
This class allows to get translations for strings.
In wxWidgets this class manages message catalogs which contain the
translations of the strings used to the current language. Unlike wxLocale,
it isn't bound to locale. It can be used either independently of, or in
conjunction with wxLocale. In the latter case, you should initialize
wxLocale (which creates wxTranslations instance) first; in the former, you
need to create a wxTranslations object and Set() it manually.
Only one wxTranslations instance is active at a time; it is set with the
Set() method and obtained using Get().
Unlike wxLocale, wxTranslations' primary mean of identifying language
is by its "canonical name", i.e. ISO 639 code, possibly combined with
ISO 3166 country code and additional modifiers (examples include
"fr", "en_GB" or "ca@valencia"; see wxLocale::GetCanonicalName() for
more information). This allows apps using wxTranslations API to use even
languages not recognized by the operating system or not listed in
wxLanguage enum.

This macro doesn't do anything in the program code -- it simply expands to
the value of its argument.
However it does have a purpose which is to mark the literal strings for the
extraction into the message catalog created by @c xgettext program. Usually
this is achieved using _() but that macro not only marks the string for
extraction but also expands into a wxGetTranslation() call which means that
it cannot be used in some situations, notably for static array
initialization.
Here is an example which should make it more clear: suppose that you have a
static array of strings containing the weekday names and which have to be
translated (note that it is a bad example, really, as wxDateTime already
can be used to get the localized week day names already). If you write:
@code
static const char * const weekdays[] = { _("Mon"), ..., _("Sun") };
...
// use weekdays[n] as usual
@endcode
The code wouldn't compile because the function calls are forbidden in the
array initializer. So instead you should do this:
@code
static const char * const weekdays[] = { wxTRANSLATE("Mon"), ...,
wxTRANSLATE("Sun") };
...
// use wxGetTranslation(weekdays[n])
@endcode
Note that although the code @b would compile if you simply omit
wxTRANSLATE() in the above, it wouldn't work as expected because there
would be no translations for the weekday names in the program message
catalog and wxGetTranslation() wouldn't find them.

This function returns the translation of @a string in the current

catalogs (see @ref overview_i18n), the original string is returned. In
debug build, an error message is logged -- this should help to find the
strings which were not yet translated. If @a domain is specified then only
that domain/catalog is searched for a matching string. As this function is
used very often, an alternative (and also common in Unix world) syntax is
provided: the _() macro is defined to do the same thing as
wxGetTranslation().
This function calls wxTranslations::GetString().
@note This function is not suitable for literal strings in Unicode builds
since the literal strings must be enclosed in wxT() macro which makes
them unrecognised by @c xgettext, and so they are not extracted to
the message catalog. Instead, use the _() and wxPLURAL() macro for
all literal strings.

the @a string parameter must contain the singular form of the string to be
