I was going to add a new menu item in the context menu, and would like
to be able to display localized strings instead of a fixed string. In
particular, I'm going to support both en-US and zh-CN.

The steps to add a resource string seem to be:

1. Add an XML stanza in chrome\app\generated_resources.grd.
The message string can be fixed or parameterized with $1, $2, etc.
Changes in generated_resources.grd will be reflected in
generated_resources.h and generated_resources_en-US.rc.

2. Add the translation of the string in every locale, e.g.,
generated_resources_zh-CN.xtb
If we don't perform this step, generated_resources_zh-CN.rc gets the
untranslated string.

3. When you need to display the string, call l10n_util::GetString()
for fixed strings,
or GetStringF() for parameterized strings.

The problem is, generated_resources.grd and generated_resources_zh-
CN.xtb also seem to be generated from other files. But I couldn't find
the sources of these files. Did Google not release them in the SVN
repository, or did I miss something? Manually editing the files didn't
achieve what I wanted.
