Remove: "language" field from server/client

Browse Source 
The original idea was that people could find a server they could
talk in their native language on. This isn't really used in that
way. There are several reasons for removing this:

- the client also sends his "language" to the server, but nothing
  is doing anything with this.
- flags are a bad way to represent languages, and over the years
  we had several (rightfully) complaints about this.
- most servers have their language set to "All", and prefix the
  servername with the language it is about. This is a much more
  efficient way to do the same.

All in all, this feature should go back to the drawing board.
Maybe it could work in another form, but this form is not it.
