    app: detect system language with a more robust logic.
    
    langinfo.h is not on all systems apparently and/or the locale item we
    test for may not be available everywhere. Actually even on Linux, after
    testing more deeply, I could create cases where nl_langinfo() would not
    return a result (if the locale is broken through environment variable
    for instance). setlocale() seems to always return usable value so far,
    so I fallback on it. As a last resort, I look at environment variables
    (even though these may contain invalid contents.
    
    As for Windows and macOS, I try to use more platform-specific methods.
    In macOS in particular, as I understood from reports, GIMP follows
    correctly the language preference order, which means we should not look
    at a single (top) lang, but at the whole list of prefered languages as a
    single settings to determine whether the language was changed or not.
    
    Should fix on Windows:
    
    > fatal error: langinfo.h: No such file or directory
    
    and on macOS:
    
    > error: use of undeclared identifier '_NL_IDENTIFICATION_LANGUAGE'
