bug#61965: Commands like "guix system search KEYWORD" don't work with locale it_IT.utf8

Yep.  I also fixed a worrying number of @comando, @opzione, etc. on Weblate (both in the 'guix' and 'packages' sets).

Weblate is pretty unfriendly, so this was tedious and I'm positive there are some I missed.  There's a comment warning translators not to do this, but it's sadly useless since it's tied to *one* package—the odds of seeing it are vanishing.

Julien, is there a way to make this warning more prominent/ubiquitous?

(Also, is there a translation workflow that avoids relying on Weblate or other clunky tools?)

Run-time errors appear to be the only QA available for these strings, but this failure mode is extreme.  How about explicitly reporting the error & continuing in English?

From what I remember, the code won't be elegant (we append to the translation, then convert Texi, so falling back must be done by the caller or a new combo procedure) but the result would be better.

Kind regards,

Sent on the go.  Excuse or enjoy my brevity.
