i18n: Add Norwegian translations (nb, nn) - #914
Merged

Conversation
Adds Bokmål (nb) and Nynorsk (nn) for all string IDs, plus a `no` -> `nb` alias for systems that report the legacy macro-language tag. Ctrl/Alt/Shift and "Tabs" are left to the English fallback: Norwegian keyboards use the English key labels, and "Tabs" is the term in use. Not added to __default__ to keep the default binary size unchanged; build with EDIT_CFG_LANGUAGES=...,nb,nn to include them.

Adds Norwegian Bokmål (
nb) and Norwegian Nynorsk (nn) toi18n/edit.toml, covering 59 of the 64 string IDs.Five IDs are deliberately left to the English fallback rather than translated:
Ctrl,Alt,Shift— Norwegian keyboards are labelled with the English key names, so translating them would be wrong. (Same reasondaonly overridesShift.)IndentationTabs— "Tabs" is the term used in Norwegian as well.Also adds a
no = "nb"alias to__alias__, so systems reporting the legacy macro-language tag (no_NO, some macOS configurations) get Bokmål rather than falling back to English.nb_NOandnn_NOare already covered by the existing prefix matching.__default__is intentionally left unchanged, so the default binary size is unaffected — this matches how the other Nordic languages (da,sv,fi) are carried. We'd be happy to seenb/nnpromoted into__default__if you ever consider it worthwhile, but we're not expecting it and this PR does not depend on it.Verified with
EDIT_CFG_LANGUAGES=en,nb,nn cargo build, then run underLANG=nb_NO.UTF-8andLANG=nn_NO.UTF-8:
