[Qgis-developer] [Processing] translate parameter selection dropdown contents

[Arnaud Morvan]

Hello,

without further notice, I will work on processing dropdown parameter 
translation next week, that is:

     modify all algorithms in the QGIS group, like this :
https://github.com/arnaud-morvan/QGIS/commit/0286c3d95dffeee65ff7a6b7a69919d700815e4b

     and make a Pull Request

Best Regards

Arnaud
