Introduce the extraction side of the continuous localization loop. A scheduled job (nightly, plus manual dispatch) keeps the `translations` branch equal to `staging` + the not-yet-released translations: - merge (never rebase) `staging` into `translations` so the buffer is never rewritten; - regenerate the i18n catalogs with `extract_messages` / `update_catalog`; - commit and push back to `translations` only when the extracted keys change, re-merging any concurrent Weblate commit before pushing. Weblate tracks the same branch and edits only translation values, so the two never touch the same lines. The buffer is squash-merged into `staging` once per release, keeping history linear. This removes the need for force-push, branch locks and Weblate resets in the translation workflow. Co-Authored-by: Pascal Repond <pascal.repond@rero.ch>
