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

[Victor Olaya]

Arnaud

In my opinion, is much better to translate at runtime. Don't forget
that providers can be loaded and unloaded, and also updated (as it
happens with the SAGA one when the path to the SAGA executables is
changed), so that is a better option.

Thanks for this works!
