Attachment: Bug 1813161 - Identify language in about:translations r=gregtatum!

Adds a LanguageIdWorker class which is responsible for identifying
the language of written text in order to determine from which language
a translation should occur.

This patch adds the infrastructure and capability to make these assessments
and logs them to the terminal when using the about:translations page.

In a subsequent patch, we can utilize this information to add user-interactive
functionality to about:translations.

Depends on D169879
