patch 9.1.1483: not possible to translation position in buffer

Problem: not possible to translation position in buffer
Solution: use _() macro to mark the output as translatable
(Emir SARI)

Row/Column indicator separator is currently not customizable. Some
languages have a space after the comma as the usual practice, plus this
would help translators use a custom separator like colons if necessary.

Additionally, after a save, the line and the byte indicator is also
hardcoded, this enables i18n for that as well.

closes: #17608
