[LOC]The "on" is not translated for Error on errorProvider property on all local languages

[Zheng-Li01]

.NET version

.NET 9.0.100-rc2.24455.8

Did it work in .NET Framework?

No

Did it work in any of the earlier releases of .NET Core or .NET 5+?

No, the issue also can reproduce from .NET Core 3.1

Issue description

The on is not translated for Error on errorProvider property on all 13 local languages: CHS, CHT, CSY, DEU, ESN, FRA, ITA, JPN, KOR, PLK, PTB, RUS, TRK.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create .NET Winforms project with ErrorProvide & Button controls.
2. Observer the "on" in Error on errorProvider property.

Presumably this is in the designer

@LeafShi1 - I think this name is coming from the PropertyGrid in the Framework, but I'm not sure, could you please investigate. This property is coming from IExtenderProvider

The root of the problem is that the resource is not localized when getting the DisplayName

@Tanya-Solyanik So the changes should be made to the file System.ComponentModel.ExtendedPropertyDescriptor , where do we change that file and can we change it at all?

This issue doesn't reproduce in .NetFramwork project, cause the DisplayName was override in VsTargetFrameworkPropertyDescriptor.cs

[Tanya-Solyanik]

@LeafShi1 - great investigation.

We don't own Systerm.ComponentModel in .NET

[Tanya-Solyanik]

How do we opt into localization in this string -

runtime/src/libraries/System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter/src/System/ComponentModel/ExtendedPropertyDescriptor.cs

Line 102 in 7b1e788

name = SR.Format(SR.UsingResourceKeys() ? "{0} on {1}" : SR.MetaExtenderName, name, providerName);

The LOC is here:

runtime/src/libraries/System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter/src/System/ComponentModel/ExtendedPropertyDescriptor.cs

Line 102 in 81efcad

name = SR.Format(SR.UsingResourceKeys() ? "{0} on {1}" : SR.MetaExtenderName, name, providerName);

This needs to move to a new resource string like "{0} on {1}".
