(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

[Description:]

When live switching language, the string for the sidebar change position remains untranslated.

[Environment:]

100.0b4

Mac 11
Windows 10
Ubuntu 22

[Preconditions:]

Configs:
user_pref("intl.multilingual.downloadEnabled", true);
user_pref("intl.multilingual.enabled", true);
user_pref("intl.multilingual.liveReload", true);
user_pref("browser.search.log", true);

Install Languages:
about:preferences /Language - Search More Languages/Select Language to add / Add.

[Steps:]

1. Install a firefox Firefox locale, en-us for example (autoset region not that relevant).
2. Locate languages and install a few languages: fr, en, cn
3. Enable Menu bar and enable any View/Sidebar.
4. Open about:preferences / Language.
5. Switch the language to anything previously added (e.g. fr).
6. From the Sidebar panel top menu click on the dropdown(e.g: if the Bookmark sidebar has been opened, the bookmark label will have a dropdown.)

[Actual Result:]

The Side bar label change left/right remains in the original language. (see Note)

[Expected Result:]

The Side bar label change left/right is reloaded in the switched language.

[Note:]

The Switch side for the pannel is usually translated (depending on the localization chosen) - it just doesn't translate on switch.

This is in browser.properties, so we have to move it to FTL to fix this.
