Patch that adds (optional support) for having the babel box vary by user lang.

I'm re-opening this bug because:
*The main objections to the original commit were that wrong lang got displayed
to users due to cache, not the idea of the commit.
*heck, there's even comments in the code saying fixme should use user lang
*Well in theory pages should only use content lang, Commons already massively
abuses int: in order to make page content vary by user lang, this really wont
add to that in any considerable way, pretending people don't do that won't make
them stop.

Thus here is a patch that changes the "Babel user information", and "Users by
language" messages to be in user language. It will fragment parser cache
somewhat, I'm not sure how big an issue that is, but the patch makes showing
these things in user lang configurable with a global defaulting to off, so if
its a concern we could just enable on commons where parser cache is already
rather fragmented via {{int:..

Anyhow, I'd like to commit this if there's no objections.
