[PATCH V2] scripts/checktransupdate.py: add support for scanning directory

[PATCH V2] scripts/checktransupdate.py: add support for scanning directory

[Haoyang LIU]

Origin script can only accept a file as parameter, this commit enables
it to scan a directory.

Usage example:
./scripts/checktransupdate.py Documentation/translations/zh_CN/dev-tools

Thanks for the update. While this seems reasonable to me from a purely
surface level glance over the actual Python, I have added the
Documentation folks that Dongliang added from the previous thread, who
really own and maintain this file (the original patch is at [1]). Please
include them in future revisions should they be necessary. It would
probably be good for something like this to be applied?

Thanks for the suggestion. I've submitted a patch[1].

Hi Nathan
That makes sense. My V1 patch also missed Dongliang Mu and the other maintainers. Thanks for pointing it out.

Sincerely,
Haoyang
