Translation sitetree messed up

[mpeel]

The Translatable stuff is a bit screwy - for example in the site tree you can't view all children of a page, just the root children.

Here's a patch that goes too far in what it's trying to do :P

Basically, Ingo and I tried to make the translation system use other means than session to communicate that we were creating a new translation for a page, but found this to be too complicated.

This patch should be applied to 2.2.1 and will BREAK the CMS horribly.

My thoughts: Let's revert 70% of this patch, so that only these things stay:

• Changes made to CMSMain::switchlanguage() (because we want to show the whole site tree)
• Adding the marking filters to Hierarchy and Translatable, and editing the SiteTree::CMSTreeClasses() method to check if the node is translated or not.
• Fix Translatable::isTranslatedInto() to return something that actually makes sense.

mpeel also has a copy of all the site files on his machine at /home/mpeel/Programming/dnc-buggy-translation so ask him if there is something missing or you have questions :>

I'm marking this as "notformerge" until someone cleans up the patch :-P
