Mirror qet_en.ts instead of qet_fr.ts now that English is the source

Browse Source 
#1379 added misc/i18n/mirror_source_language.py and an INSTALL.md rule
to run it on lang/qet_fr.ts after update_translations, while French was
the source language. Since #1390 the code is English and qet_fr.ts is an
ordinary translation, so following the rule would copy English text into
empty French entries. The repository test still checked qet_fr.ts and
kept passing.

The rule, the script's description and the repository test now name
lang/qet_en.ts. The script refuses a file whose <TS> header names a
language different from its sourcelanguage (qet_fr.ts says fr_FR / en),
exits 2 and leaves it untouched; files without a sourcelanguage, like
the fixtures, are accepted as before. The 6 entries master added since
the conversion are mirrored, so qet_en.ts is complete again.

Tests: 19 in misc/i18n/test_mirror_source_language.py. The repository
test fails on master (6 entries to mirror); with the check_languages()
call removed, the two refusal tests fail and a run on qet_fr.ts goes
through.
