[Bf-docboard] Simplified chinese po files outdated for severalweeks and can't update po files locally

[NGE]

I don't suggest renaming files freely, renaming "undo_and_redo.rst" to "undo_redo.rst" doesn't make much sense.
A lot of tranlsated po files was deleted, and we have to translate it again. 
Rules and steps for renaming files should be added to the "About" section.

Hi, I've updated the translations however this is being handled poorly.

The french translation had committed files with merge conflicts.
Causing translation generation to fail.

Authors have been renaming files without using `tools/rst_remap.py`,
which was written to support moving/renaming RST files & images -
automatically updating PO files to avoid tedious renaming operations
for every translation.

So I'm afraid some translations will need to be manually moved to
their new locations or restored from previous revisions.
