Takes a series of CSV files with replacement text for the various names and strings in the prototype data, plus a locale to write them to
I've moved the existing en and es prototype data into subfolders and updated the management/fixture loading commands to include the current LANGUAGE_CODE setting in the path they look for prototype data. This allows us to load different prototype data with moving data around manually.

Related to #57 - this is additional localisation work we've been doing at Open Ownership to make the following sites:
We've sketched out a spreadsheet-based substitution method for localising the prototype data, where we've got some folks with locale-specific expertise to adapt the data to their contexts and then created duplicates of the BODS/OCDS files with these modifications made to them. There's a new management command to actually make the changes, plus some modifications to the data loading scripts so that if you've set a
LANGUAGE_CODEsetting, it'll look for the appropriate prototype data.I think this is probably a bit too rough and ready for inclusion as-is, but in the spirit of sharing, I'll let you be the judge! There's no documentation as yet, but I can add some and tidy this up if it's interesting - it's still a bit of a manual process.
