Summary: i18n support for Archiver

Initial Comment:
I'm trying to provide changes in small chunks.
This 1st patch does the following:

- 7 new template files:

        archidxentry.html   
        archidxhead.html   
        archidxfoot.html     
        archliststart.html  
        archlistend.html    
        archtoc.html
        archtocentry.html

- _() marking for translatable strings

- a few small bugfixes (e.g. unwanted spaces,
   bin/arch not calling i18n.set_language, etc.)

TODO:

- show translated tags for archive volumes (e.g.
   "2002-August", "2002q3", "Week-of-Mon-XXXX")
   I have 2 alternatives: renaming files and dirs where
   the archives are built (cleaner, but screws up 
   everything in pre-existing archives) or build a 
   tag-to-description translator (better, I think)

- find a way to produce translated datetime strings
  without using locale.setlocale and time.strftime()
  (this is discouraged in Python manual)
  Here I really need some advice.

I'm looking at this patch now and am cleaning up the code. 
Is there a reason why one of the patches copied the
processUnixMailbox() method from pipermail.py to
HyperArch.py?  That doesn't appear necessary.

Thank you for updating.
Another comment:
I'v got error when I post a message to a list after applying
this patch. It is because a new variable Article._lang was
introduced and the older archive doesn't have this.  I had
to re-generate the whole archive. 
Another solution may be like.....
        if not self._lang:
            self._lang = self._mlist.preferred_language
        i18n.set_language(self._lang)

I'm attaching the 3rd chunk modified as suggested by Tokio Kikuchi.
Maybe i18n_ctime is worth moving in Mailman/i18n.py ?

And finally, this is the 3rd piece of the puzzle: dates translation.
I had to reinvent the wheel, and it's an relatively expensive
hack (from a computational efficiency point of view) but it 
works without touching pipermail.py

This patch is incremental and must be applied after #2

Here is the 2nd patch, providing the tag-to-description translator
for volume tags.  This patch is incremental and must be applied
after patch #¹

Now the last thing is dates.
I wouln'd want to reinvent the wheel....
