Enable additional language support of FFaudioConverter's GUI menu

Hello,

I'll share how did I enable Japanese localization of FFaudioConverter's GUI menu.
This procedure is quite simple and easy. So,it might be useful for other language users who want to enable their own language menu of FFaudioConverter.

OK. Following how2 is an example of Japanese language case.
Please change "ja / ja_JP" part to your own LANG.

Step-1. Get source
wget https://github.com/Bleuzen/FFaudioCo...-0.31.0.tar.gz

Step-2. Create new message data of my language (ja.ts)
1) Extract the source and pic a base *.ts data from FFaudioConverter-0.31.0/translations/ directory.
(I used de.ts as a base ts.)

2) cp FFaudioConverter-0.31.0/translations/de.ts .
mv de.ts ja.ts

3) Edit Line 3 with a text editor
<TS version="2.1" language="de_DE">
to
<TS version="2.1" language="ja_JP">

4) Tranlate ja.ts into my own language
Qt5-Linguist will be the best tool for creating TS data, but a text editor such as nano is also OK, because translation items are only '49" in case of this application.

[for example]
Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE TS>
<TS version="2.1" language="ja_JP">
<context>
<name>AboutDialog</name>
<message>
<location filename="../src/aboutdialog.ui" line="14"/>
<source>About</source>
<translation>FFaudioConverter</translation>
</message>
<message>
<location filename="../src/aboutdialog.ui" line="26"/>
<source>Close</source>
<translation></translation>
</message>
<message>
<location filename="../src/aboutdialog.ui" line="105"/>
<source>About Qt</source>
<translation>Qt</translation>
</message>
<message>
<location filename="../src/aboutdialog.cpp" line="39"/>
<source>developed by</source>
<translation></translation>
</message>
