Add locale (i18n) support #81

@lidel

Description

@lidel

New source dataset format introduced in #80 provides country and city names in other languages than English
(at the time of writing this, we have names in: de, en, es, fr, ja, pt-BR, ru and zh-CN).

We could add support for passing optional language code to the lookup method.

Details of how to modify b-tree format remain TBD.

Open questions:

  • should we have separate b-tree for each language, or should we keep all translations in a single tree?
    • if it is a single tree, how to ensure client is not fetching strings that they do not need?
