Settings: Language ▸ Match System follows the system language (#229)

The interface language was English unless Japanese was chosen in
Settings ▸ General ▸ Language. Language now has a Match System choice
(`general.language` = `system`), the new default: the operating
system's interface language where EffectCraft has a translation
(Japanese), else English, as After Effects installs in the system's
language. English and Japanese can still be chosen; a language chosen
before stays. The browser build stays in English with Match System,
since it has no Japanese font of its own.

The system language comes from sys-locale (MIT OR Apache-2.0, no
dependencies on the desktop platforms), on desktop builds only.

Tests: match_system_uses_the_system_language_where_there_is_a_catalog
(i18n), interface_language_is_validated_persisted_and_backward_compatible
(engine).
