[6.0.x] Fixed #37020 -- Removed guidance to edit fetched .po files by
hand.
Altering the .po files by hand was causing incorrect line numbers and
plural forms. Since our fetching procedure does not recompile any
hand-edited .po files to .mo files for production use, just accept
Transifex's plural forms as a source of truth.

Backport of 9391beeb8799a4b7deb4bb3048bd63465a0e96ef from main.
