WIP: Use sidecar files for identifying outdated translations

Alternative ansatz to fix #64.

Interesting!

A script checking for outdated translations already exists, perhaps you can use or expand it instead of creating a script with the same focus? check-translation-status.sh

A command to output all languages which are outdated against their english original: check-translation-status.sh -f <any_file> -o out

The idea is interesting, but I see two downsides:

The sidecar file is only rebuilt when the English version changes. So if a formerly outdated translation is updated, it is not removed from the list of outdated translations.
The solution is strictly limited to determining outdated translations, the effort of all the "git log" calls cannot be reused for e.g. including the date of the last change in the HTML output (#837).

However, I have some idea how to improve this concept which I will describe in issue #64.

The sidecar file is only rebuilt when the English version
changes. So if a formerly outdated translation is updated, it is not
removed from the list of outdated translations.

Good point! Fixed in 9d24d36061

A command to output all languages which are outdated against their
english original: check-translation-status.sh -f -o out

I didn't notice that script. On my machine, doing

for f in `find . -name "*.en.xhtml"`; do echo $f; tools/check-translation-status.sh -o out -a -f $f; done

takes approx. 12 minutes (with lots of "date: ungültiges Datum „@“" messages).

Generating the sidecar files takes approx. 5 minutes on my box (which is roughly the extra time a full build takes with #974.) Once the sidecar files are generated, you can do

find . -name "*.outdated*" | xargs cat | grep xhtml

and get all outdated files no (almost) no time.
