    journal: implement message catalog · d4205751
    Lennart Poettering authored
    The message catalog can be used to attach short help texts to log lines,
    keyed by their MESSAGE_ID= fields. This is useful to help the
    administrator understand the context and cause of a message, find
    possible solutions and find further related documentation.
    
    Since this is keyed off MESSAGE_ID= this will only work for native
    journal messages.
    
    The message catalog supports i18n, and is useful to augment english
    language system messages with explanations in the local language.
    
    This commit only includes short explanatory messages for a few example
    message IDs, we'll add more complete documentation for the relevant
    systemd messages later on.
