Translations are not installed

Created by: lukasmichel

Information

Solaar version (solaar --version or git describe --tags if cloned from this repository): 1.0.3rc1-4-gc1b6bf9
Distribution: Arch Linux
Kernel version (ex. uname -srmo): Linux 5.7.9-arch1-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Describe the bug When installing solaar via pip as described in docs/installation.md, the translations from po/* are not installed. setup.py yields paths in share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/solaar.mo as translations (setup.py:22), but those do not exist. They are only created by running tools/po-compile.sh but ignored by the gitignore file and thus not contained in this repository. When running tools/po-compile.sh before installing solaar from the repository via pip, the translations are correctly installed.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Clone solaar
install solaar from the repository pip install --user .
run LANGUAGE=de solaar
Expected Behaviour: Text in solaar is in German. Actual Behaviour: Text is in English.
uninstall solaar pip uninstall solaar
run tools/po-compile.sh
pip install --user .
run LANGUAGE=de solaar
Now, solaar uses the German translations.

Possible Solutions

Keep the compiled translation files in the repository or
Add a section to installation.md that explains how to install the translations together with solaar . or
Make setup.py create the compiled translation files itself. However, I do not know if this is possible.
