When using the `set_language` view to set the language for the user, it
doesn't work if the language file is not in `settings.LOCALE_PATHS` nor in
`django/conf/locale/`.
Indeed `set_language`
(https://github.com/django/django/blob/stable/1.11.x/django/views/i18n.py#L50)
calls the function `check_for_language`. `check_for_language` will check
if the language in parameter exists in the `gettext` catalog. However,
`check_for_language` calls the function `all_locale_paths`
(https://github.com/django/django/blob/stable/1.11.x/django/utils/translation/trans_real.py#L411)
which doesn't contains the path of the apps.
I create a language that doesn't exist in the Django default language, I
can't switch to this language because it cannot be found, it only exists
in the `locale` directory inside my apps.
