                    translatability

misc/translator/po/*-pref.po lacks translatability because the position of
options are fixed.

For example, admin.pref#casAuthentication consists of three entries.
# CAS for login authentication.
# Don't use
# Use
It is used to construct the following sentence with a drop-down list.
 "[Don't use/Use] CAS for login authentication."
The Japanese translation of this would look like the following.
"CASをログイン認証に使用[しない/する]"
However, it is impossible to use this translation because the position of the
drop-down list is fixed.
This could be solved by expressing options as %s and allow the translator to
modify the position. The following is an example.
# %s CAS for login authentication.
