[Bf-committers] moving i18n from UI_interface to blenkernel

[Bastien Montagne]

Just talk with sergey about this on IRC. He suggested to move that i18n 
stuff to BLF rather than BKE. But this means we’ll likely have to import 
from BLF in many parts of Blender (nodes, modifiers, RNA, etc.). Would 
it be acceptable?
