Add documentation on the supported layout on the tarball upload form

[David Planella]

When checking on the status of some manual KDE uploads today I noticed that they were not imported because they did not follow the gettext layout (i.e. POT and PO files flat in the same directory, PO files named $LANG.po), and the uploader did not know about the expected format.

Here's the upload form in one of the templates where it happened:

  https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/plasma-mobile/+pots/plasma-mobile/+upload

It would be useful to either add an additional paragraph with an explanation, a link to the existing documentation [1] or a popup with this information. This way the uploader would have known the expected layout in the tarball.

TBH, we should probably aim to support layouts like that instead. See bug #444706 for one particular case that is quite common, and this bug seems to describe the other:

  .../<lang1>/template1.po
  .../<lang1>/template2.po
  ...
  .../<lang2>/template1.po
  ...

Sorry for the status toggle but I just saw that this is already implemented for project uploads. Should be easy to transfer to the other upload form. Maybe I'll do that this afternoon. ;-)
