Description

Hi everyone!

Per #2503, module name localization is coming to fastfetch in the next release! Module display names (e.g., `Memory`, `Disk`, `Terminal`, etc.) will now be translated into multiple languages.

Before this feature is shipped, I'd like the community's help to review and verify the translations, especially from native speakers. If you spot any awkward phrasing, incorrect terminology, or missing nuances, please let me know.

---

You can preview the localized module names right now with:

```bash
$ fastfetch -c all --key-language --show-errors
```

This will render all available modules with their translated display names.

```bash
$ fastfetch --help key-language
```

This will print all languages supported currently.

If you'd prefer to review the raw translation entries directly, all localized `displayName` fields can be extracted from the source tree with:

```bash
$ rg -U --multiline-dotall '\.displayName = .*?\},' src/modules/*/*.c
```

---

Thank you so much for helping make fastfetch more accessible to users around the world! Every review, no matter how small, is greatly appreciated.
