Details:
I've noticed a number of constructs in the Qt client that aren't really
suitable for i18n.
It probably wants a blanket review, ideally before too many translators spend
time on the current strings.
1. Sentences assembled out of fragments by string concatenation rather than
using format strings.
unit_label1 = unit_label1 + " " + _("from") + " ";
techs_known = QString("<b>") + _("Techs unknown by") + sp
+ QString(nation_adjective_for_player(pplayer)) + sp
+ QString(_("nation")) + QString("</b> :");
2. Non-generalised pluralisation.
if (unit_list_size(punits) == 1) {
ask.setText(_("Are you sure you want to disband that unit?"));
} else {
str = QString(_("Are you sure you want to disband those %1 units?")).arg
