qt: don't install translation files by default

Commit 93917b6980f7f2b51302e1a3fa451b07cf7d674e (2013.11) introduced
the installation of the binary .qm translation files, unconditionally.

However, the installed size is very large for some embedded systems
(about 8 MB), and they are not needed in many cases.

In order to avoid such a waste of storage space, commit
2ff329412f490dc916bab3377073ef5950a46298 (2014.08) made this
installation an option that could be disabled. For backward
compatibility, the option default was set to yes.

Given the size of these files, and that they had never been installed
by Buildroot versions before 2013.11, change the default to not
installing them.

Interested users can still activate it as needed.

Also update and improve the help text.
