Translation: Add some in French

[ShuffleWire]

Hello,

I'm trying to add french translation to Webots :)
Before doing more, I wish to know if it's the correct way to do.
Question : have your rules on character escape ? for instance i'm using ' for " ' ", is it correct ?
Just to be sure why is there & before some terms ? (eg <source>&amp;Filter</source>)

If there are some French folks in the wild, please give your taught on my translation (I'm french, but more eye to look at it is better :) )

Thanks

I believe the & character is for keyboard shortcuts (for menus).
Normally, you should HTML for any special character, like ' for ', but maybe simply ' is working (you should test it).
If it works, then it is probably better, as more readable.

If your PR is not ready for review, please turn it into a draft (see right column of this page), and turn it again to "ready for review" once it is.

i don't know if it work, but it mess up VSCode syntax highlighting ! so I would not go that route...

PS : Gitlab have actually interpreted my escape code.... that make my message meaningless. I will edit that !

I do think that your ' is better that my `'

Additionnal question : What the meaning of type="unfinished" ? I initially thought that it was to indicate missing or WIP translation, but the following seems very fine, for instance...

<message>
        <source>Webots cannot compute inertia for ElevationGrid objects.</source>
        <translation type="unfinished">Webots ne peut pas calculer l&apos;inertie pour les objets ElevationGrid.</translation>
    </message>

I've removed it from my translated text, but should I ?

I am not sure about this unfinished type, probably we simply forgot to remove it. I believe it is better that you remove it from your translations.

I am closing this PR as it was inactive for a long time.
