#24547: "Go to All %s" string not ready for i18n

 The "Go to All %s" string ([http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk
 /wp-admin/includes/post.php#L1214 location] is marked with %s being any
 post type: "Posts, Pages, etc.".

 As it is, translators cannot do a direct translation of it: as with any
 "any post type"-related string, it should be known that depending on the
 language, some post types can have a "gender", and therefore cannot use
 the same sentence structure.

 For instance, in French, Post is Article, which is masculine, when Page is
 Page, which is feminine. Translation for this string would then either be
 "Aller à tous les articles" or "Aller à toutes les pages".

 Either the string is reworked, or translators should be advised to use a
 sentence structure that works for any content type.
