Most important enhancements

- Translation documentation (`#1907`_)

This brings in the ability to translate both the keyword names as well as

the keyword documentation. Details on how to create translations can be found

within the keyword documenation. In addtion the introduction of the selib tool

allows for further enhancement like ``transform`` which will run Robotidy

alongside a (future) SeleniumLibrary transformer to automatically handle keyword

deprecations.
