[JIRA] (JENKINS-39345) Use js-modules to coordinate async loading of i18n translation bundles as part of dependant JavaScript bundle

Title: Message Title

Cliff Meyers commented on JENKINS-39345   Re: Use js-modules to coordinate async loading of i18n translation bundles as part of dependant _javascript_ bundle James Dumay just to clarify the need / benefits: 1. Right now, the UI will render with whatever "defaultValue" in specified in the JS code and then re-render after the language bundle loads (async, after the initial render). So for anyone that doesn't have English set as their language, they will see the UI paint in English and then repaint in their language a moment later. 2. Every string displayed in the UI needs that defaultValue specified. So all i18n code looks like this: <div>{t('creation.git.step1.title'), { defaultValue: "Connect to Git" })}</div> After making this change it could simply be <div>{t('creation.git.step1.title')}</div> This would be a huge benefit from a maintainability standpoint. 3. Anywhere that we might access localized strings in a more programmatic fashion (outside of JSX, e.g. in a list of radio buttons where we build up the button labels in JS code) we will have to introduce some pattern to delay the execution of that code until after the bundle loads, otherwise the defaultValue string will display instead of the correct value.
