'ManyToOneRel' object has no attribute 'help_text' when translating FormPage

The issue, don't know what else to say 😄:

Update:

I tried to replace this 'fieldHelpText': child_field.help_text, in wagtail_localize/views/edit_translation.py on line 329 with this child_field.help_text if hasattr(child_field, 'help_text') else None.
And then another error appeared:

  File "C:\Users\Shaffle\.virtualenvs\mistralvision-Qp0hboiu\lib\site-packages\wagtail_localize\views\edit_translation.py", line 330, in get_segment_location_info
    'subField': capfirst(child_field.verbose_name),

Did the same with this one
'subField': capfirst(child_field.verbose_name) if hasattr(child_field, 'verbose_name') else None, and it works.
I don't know if this is the right way to do it, so I won't make a PR 😞.

Got the same issue. I used your workaround but I do think a fix would be beneficial
