docs/user: Update locale kit description.
- Delete the introduction from the kits list page, as it is already under locale_intro. - Update the description in locale_intro. - Since the locale kit now lives in libbe, delete the paragraph about libraries from the intro, and move the still relevant part about liblocalestub to the catalog translation macros description in Catalog.dox.

\defgroup locale Locale Kit
|
||||
\brief Collection of classes for localizing applications.
|
||||
|
||||
The Locale Kit provides a set of tools for internationalizing,
|
||||
localizing and translating your software. This includes not only
|
||||
replacing string with their translations at runtime, but also more
|
||||
complex tasks such as formatting numbers, dates, and times in a way
|
||||
that match the locale preferences of the user.
|
||||
|
||||
The main way to access locale data is through the be_locale_roster.
|
||||
This is a global instance of the BLocaleRoster class, storing the data
|
||||
for localizing an application according to the user's preferred settings.
|
||||
The locale roster also acts as a factory to instantiate most of the other
|
||||
classes. However, there are some cases where you will need to instantiate
|
||||
another class by yourself, to use it with custom settings. For example, you
|
||||
may need to format a date with a fixed format in english for including in an
|
||||
e-mail header, as it is the only format accepted there.
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike the other kits in Haiku, the Locale kit does not live in libbe.
|
||||
When building a localized application, you have to link it to
|
||||
liblocale.so. If you want to use the catalog macros, you also have to
|
||||
link each of your images (that is, applications, libraries and add-ons)
|
||||
to liblocalestub.a.
