Add locale.getlocale()

This returns the localization of the running CircuitPython, such as
en_US, fr, etc.

Additional changes are needed in build infrastructure since the
string "en_US" should not appear to be translated in weblate, ever;
instead the value comes from the translation metadata.

Closes: #8602
