 This was previously included in #15677, but we decided to extract it for
 now, because it needs some more work.

 '''Goal'''
 The new language dropdown shows in addition to the installed languages
 also all available translations. When you select one of the available
 translations core will download the language pack and switches the site
 language.

 '''Issues'''
 The main issue is the access to the filesystem: If it requires the
 credentials it currently does't work, because of the
 Automatic_Upgrader_Skin() in wp_download_language_pack().
