#53125: Error messages should not be translateable

e.g. wp-db.php has an error message:
{{{#!php
$error_str = sprintf( __( 'WordPress database error %1$s for query %2$s'
), $str, $this->last_query );
}}}
Since this is error logged, we will end up with 5 different languages of
this string in error log, when using multilingual websites.
General consensus for software is that errors in logs should always be in
English. (unlike errors displayed to the user).
Since %1$s and %2$s in this string are in English (since mysql always
returns errors in English), we end up with a language mish-mash.
