Add CMakeL10n rules. #8

Merged

The attached rules should work well enough. However, it would be useful to add support to tde_create_l10n_template macro for EXCLUDES to be an easy way to exclude some nested directories or files. For example, to avoid repeating string from the nested directory in the catalog from the parent directory. Or to exclude directories, such as tests performed during building.

The rules contain some useful things and some hacks:

  1. Instead of merging qt-messages.pot, which is not regularly updated, strings are extracted directly from ../dependencies/tqt3/src. As a result, the TQt3 strings will be up to date. And qt-messages.pot will no longer be needed.
  2. To extract the strings from the tqt3/src/xml/qxml.cpp file properly, #define is hidden before extracting. After extracting, the original file is restored.
  3. The tdeui/colors/rgb.txt file is modified to format as C source before extracting strings with color names. After extracting, the original file is restored.
  4. The tdeprint/cups/cupsdconf2/cupsd.conf.template file is modified to format as C source before extracting strings for CUPS configuration. After extracting, the original file is restored.

Thanks to editing files in place, POT files point to the correct lines in existing files.

The attached rules should work well enough. However, it would be useful to add support to `tde_create_l10n_template` macro for `EXCLUDES` to be an easy way to exclude some nested directories or files.

Added commits already use EXCLUDES – see TDE/tde-common-cmake#4.

Is it possible to look for tqt3 module path rather than using a relative path? This is because with relative path, the functionality would stop working if we move tqt3 so a different place.

This is a general observation, which is probably applicable in other parts/modules as well.

as for cmake #5, renaming of files could cause problems when the process is halted half way. Suggest we consider copy and work on the copied file instead of the original, if this does not cause problem with POT pointing to wrong files.

Or is there a way to get POT to point to original file even when working on a copy?

do we need to delete "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../dependencies/tqt3/src/xml/qxml.cpp" before the rename is done?

as above, finding the location of tde-i18n would be preferred over using a relative location.

Same comment applies in various other files in this PR, I will not comment on those cases.

We should consider the idea of modifying "tde_l10n_create_template" so that we specify destination module and relative destination path. then the macro will search for the module (most of the time it would be tde-i18n but sometimes it could be an application module, like koffice-i18n).

cmake submodule commit hash change should not be part of this PR, IMO.
