Apostrophe 3.34.0 New internationalization options and fixes

[BoDonkey]

Hello JavaScript Aficionados!

After a few technical delays, we have a new release! In addition to some fixes and performance enhancements for core, we are releasing a new module to make the administration of static string translation easier. The new @apostrophecms/i18n-static module provides administrators with an editable list of all string translations for each locale. You can even quickly filter by namespace!

Moving forward toward the end of the year, with our developers taking well-deserved rest, we expect our release tempo to be a bit "adagio". Our keyboard shortcuts tool to simplify editing tasks is getting a few last tweaks and tests but should rear its beautiful productivity-enhancing goodness in the next release. We have also been improving our tools and protocols for migrating Apostrophe 2 sites to the newer Apostrophe 3.

Until our next release, may your pages hydrate quickly, but your code remain DRY!
