Implement internationalized strings for stand-alone

Description

When Lightbox is served up by the Gallery Tool in Sakai, localizable text is provided by the server using .properties files. When running stand-alone there is no such server. Therefore, the stand-alone HTML file (currently Lightbox.html) should be able to provide the localized text without a server being run.

A solution is to hard-code the strings into the Lightbox component.

I'm not convinced we need to supply localised text outside of a server environment?
The standalone distribution is only for previewing and test, and any strings which are seen there are largely for "bulk" which could be just as easily in any language (Latin is a commonly chosen one!)
Or are we imagining a requirement where we would hand out samples of the Lightbox files where the user review would actually be on the message content? In that case we would need to localise all the content, including the image fruit labels...
