Title: Manager for Language Overrides

Hi,

while supporting our component we come often across people who want to change the language output.
It has to be explained then in which file the string can be found so that it can be edited.

With the new version of Joomla! it is possible to create language overrides so that the changes aren't lost anymore during the updates. This is great, but the user still has to find the correct language file in order to detect which language constant he has to override.

With this pull request I'd like to suggest a new manager which simplifies that.
It's a new tab in language manager in which users can create language overrides for any installed language.

In the edit view a search can be done for language strings the user wants to change. The script will then take completely care of the override.ini files.

This way people can change any language output of their site without having to know anything about language constants or override.ini files.

Please let me know what you think about that.

Regards
Chraneco
