#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.
