CUPS driver localization changes...

All,

I've updated the CUPS raster driver to generate localized INFO, ERROR,
and WARNING messages.  In many cases I've removed the "Gutenprint"
prefix from these messages and/or reworded them to be more user-
friendly - feel free to suggest improvements!

All I have left is a change to genppd to create globalized PPD files.

I want to have the Gutenprint prefix in *all* of the messages to help
track down what's going on, even if it is a bit less "friendly".  If
you're trying to track down a problem, and can't figure out where the
message came from, it's *extremely* unfriendly.

As for the debug messages, I wanted those extra spaces between
"Gutenprint" and what follows to help follow the error messages (via
indentation).  If you want to change "Gutenprint" to "Gutenprint:"
that's OK, but I want the spacing preserved.  It really makes it a lot
easier to grovel through the output.
