Title:
  Translation issue when there is more than one plural form

Status in Mahara:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  For example, Czech has two plural forms that have been translated, but
  only the first one is (1) picked up in Mahara no matter how many posts
  there are in a journal for example, where all plural forms have been
  translated. Plural forms were implemented in bug #901051.

  More context information is available at http://www.gnu.org/savannah-
  checkouts/gnu/gettext/manual/html_node/Plural-forms.html and
  https://git.mahara.org/mahara/mahara/-/blob/master/htdocs/lang/en.utf8/langconfig.php#L50

  The plural rules for Czech: "Plural-Forms: nplurals=3; plural=(n==1) ? 0 : (n>=2 && n<=4) ? 1 : 2;\n":
  i.e. use plural 1 for 2-4 and plural 2 for 0, 5 and more.

  langpacks/cs.utf8/artefact/blog/lang/cs.utf8/artefact.blog.php

  $string['nposts'] = array(

                   0 => 'Jeden příspěvek',
                   1 => '%s příspěvky,',
                   2 => '%s příspěvků'
  );

  $string['youhavenblog'] = array(

                   0 => 'Máte jeden deník.',
                   1 => 'Máte %d deníky.',
                   2 => 'Máte %d deníků.'

  In Mahara we have:
  ---
  $string['pluralrule'] = '(n==1) ? 0 : (n>=2 && n<=4) ? 1 : 2';
  $string['pluralfunction'] = 'plural_cs_utf8';
  function plural_cs_utf8($n) {
      return ($n==1) ? 0 : ($n>=2 && $n<=4) ? 1 : 2;
  }
  ---

  which indicates that it should support plural forms, but it doesn't.

  To replicate:

  1. Install the Czech lang pack (via CLI). It's code is 'cs'.
  2. Create 2 journal entries and check the lang string for the number of journal entries in that journal. It should say 'příspěvky' but it says '2 příspěvků'.
  3. Create another 3 entries so you have 4 and check the lang string. It says 'příspěvků' correctly.
