The main idea behind translation of metainfo and desktop file:

  1. Define the .in versions of these files without any translations.
  2. Generate a PO template (.pot) files from .in.
  3. Upload these files to Crowdin, but do not commit them.
  4. Download translated .po files from Crowdin.
  5. Apply these translations to the original input files (.in), but do not commit them.
  6. Save output to the expected paths of metainfo and desktop file (without .in).

LGTM but I'm mostly trusting that you know this stuff :D

In order to make this file translatable, we have to store its source
(as an .in file), and the original path will store its final version.

The added Makefile may be used to easily generate PO templates for translation
and apply PO translations to the final metainfo and desktop file.
Those files do not include translations, they will be overridden
by Crowdin when syncing translations.
