po_explain_plurals

The <code>nplural</code> syntax in .po file metadata can be hard to grok,
even for native speakers. This function tries to de-mystify
this by providing verbal expressions of which numbers apply
to which index in the <code>msgstr</code> array.

Translating messages in R packages is managed using the po
top-level directory and the 'gettext' program. This package provides
some helper functions for building this support in R packages, e.g.
common validation & I/O tasks.
