[Tooling] Generate translation reference JSON during build

[macandcheese]

Summary

The documentation site uses the docs-json.json file in the extras folder of our distributable to format and display docs to users. We would benefit from having a similar output for the updated translation files.

docs-json.json includes each file's messageOverride string names, but not the default values, which would be valuable to show in documentation. It would be great if these were included as well.

Alternatively, and maybe easier than fighting jsdoc, we could generate our own translations-json.json at build time, since the files seem to be in a predictable location and format: (/dist/assets/<component>/t9n).

Desired Outcome

Something like this, but any format works as long as the default are available somehow.

{
    "components": {
        "calcite-action": {
            "loading": {
                "en": "Close",
                "es": "Cerrar"
                ...
            },
            "disabled": {
                "en": "Close",
                "es": "Cerrar"
                ...
            }
        },
        "calcite-alert": {
            "loading": {
                "en": "Close",
                "es": "Cerrar"
                ...
            },
            "disabled": {
                "en": "Close",
                "es": "Cerrar"
                ...
            }
        }
    }
}

@macandcheese I think we could generate something for this quite easily. What's the desired timeline for this?

[macandcheese]

As soon as reasonable without a rush - not high priority.

Whenever it is available I can add it into documentation site. Currently we only show the English string.

Yeah I can whip something up after the patch period and other v1 stuff quiets down

[jcfranco]

@benelan Were you able to whip something up for this? We modified the milestone, but can move it sooner if it's feasible.

[benelan]

I haven't gotten to this yet, there are some higher priority items on my plate
