i18n: remove old English translation file

Under TurboGears2, automatic user language detection based on browser settings
is enabled by default. If a user has 'English' as preferred language in the
browser, then the old English .mo file with a few dummy entries would be read
and used first, before trying the language configured in the Kallithea .ini
file (e.g. French). This renders a mix of languages in the UI ... which is
unexpected.

The hiding of configured translation is fixed by removing the old english
translationfile. It was preserved via commit 7d6c4bd58abd when removing all
other .mo files. The next release will require major config changes anyway, and
we don't try to be backwards compatible.

Debugging Kallithea
===================

If you encounter problems with Kallithea, here are some instructions
on how to debug them.

.. note:: First make sure you're using the latest version available.


Enable detailed debug
---------------------

Kallithea uses the standard Python ``logging`` module to log its output.
By default only loggers with ``INFO`` level are displayed. To enable full output
change ``level = DEBUG`` for all logging handlers in the currently used .ini file.
This change will allow you to see much more detailed output in the log file or
console. This generally helps a lot to track issues.


Enable interactive debug mode
-----------------------------

To enable interactive debug mode simply comment out ``set debug = false`` in
the .ini file. This will trigger an interactive debugger each time
there is an error in the browser, or send a http link if an error occurred in the backend. This
is a great tool for fast debugging as you get a handy Python console right
in the web view.

.. warning:: NEVER ENABLE THIS ON PRODUCTION! The interactive console
             can be a serious security threat to your system.
