#1728: Add locale banner on plugin detail page

 One way to improve the visibility of the localized plugin directories is
 to show a banner on the plugin detail page, if a plugin is translated into
 a locale relevant to the user.

 We already have some code that uses GeoIP and accept-lang headers (I
 believe) to tell users if either WordPress or the forums are available in
 their language. We can reuse some of that code here. One difference,
 though, is that we'll want to check if a plugin is translated into those
 languages and only show those. The banner should probably read something
 like...

 `This plugin is also available in German.`

 But, you know, translated like the current string is on the homepage,
 download page, and forums. And with other languages in parenthesis. (Note
 that we shouldn't list ''all'' languages the plugin is available in at
 this location.)

 We already have some code that does something similar in the current
 repository. Perhaps we can reuse it?
