build: remove unused language files

2022-10-27T13:02:04+00:00

i18n in the Windows installer was disabled in 2016 for Reasons and never
re-enabled.

There have been no complaints about lack of localization in the
intervening years, suggesting there isn't a huge demand for it either.

Let's remove the files because it was confusing at least one potential
contributor.

build: remove dtrace & etw support

2022-07-17T16:33:52+00:00

There are no clear indicators anyone is using the dtrace USDT probes.

ETW support is very intertwined with the dtrace infrastructure. It's not
clear if anyone uses ETW so to keep things simple it too is removed.
