Translation docs update: don't recommend 20-year-old gettext; use msginit
Warning about gettext versions earlier than 0.10.35 is pointless, as even 0.10.35 is from 2001, and so old it isn't even available on GNU mirrors anymore. We shall not recommend a specific version in the first place. The proper way to start a new translation is to use msginit to initialize a .po file -- just copying the .pot leaves many fields to their default values, which the translator would need to fill in manually (the Plural-Forms: field in particular).
