Implements #153: Settings translations (#155)
Implementing a new translating system, so we can more easily translate
settings strings. Indeed, these strings are difficult to embed in
JSON format.

We still use JSON files for standard strings, but in addition we have
dedicated YAML files to translate settings strings.

There is a new build-languages.js script that merge all translations in JSON files.

Other modifications:
* Eslint: ignoring documentation and build scripts.
* french settings translations.

/**
* This script is used to build the translations files.
*
* Indeed, some strings used in plugin settings are not easy to write
* in JSON format (contains html, double quotes, line breaks, ...).
* So we use YAML files to translates these strings,
* including the english version.
*
* This scripts takes the standard JSON files, the YAML translation files,
* and mixes everything up in dist/languages/xx.json.
