Changes/LangpacksInstallationWithRPMWeakDependencies

Problems:

  • not all langpack subpackages are present on install media
  • we don't have a list of 'interesting languages'
  • gnome-software does not install languages packs automatically
  • gnome-software does only install the current language when installing flatpaks
  • when changing languages in the region panel, no lang packs are installed
  • gnome-initial-setup does not install lang packs
