Propose: Adding Manual translation for zh_tw from zh_cn

@3TUSK Hello! I'm a little Minecraft player from Taiwan :)

I have made up a bunch of outdated translation for zh_tw recently.
I also found that there is no translation of Forestry Manual for zh_tw (Traditional Chinese), and there's one for zh_cn, which was translated by you :)
Thinking of the players in Taiwan needing translation, would it be proper to take the Simplified Chinese version and use a translation program to translate it into Traditional Chinese?

mc-1.12...zetaraku:manualcopy-zh_tw

Feel free to take this and commit it yourself, since I don't own any credit for this translation.
I would take care of the remaining follow-up adjustment for it.

Greeting @zetaraku and apologize for late reply. School work is always busy and prioritized here because I really don't have a choice.
Regarding translation of manual. I personally consider all my translation work is in public domain, so just feel free to make a zh_tw version based on that. For 99% of times I don't really trust machine translator, even if it's something like zh_cn -> zh_tw where the differences are minor (comparing with en_us -> zh_cn). As such, I hope that you can manually review the translation if you have some spare time. I am not very familiar with Traditional Chinese, so I can't really offer help on that.

简体中文 你好@zetaraku!最近学业繁忙,所以没能及时回复,还请见谅。

关于手册翻译:我个人是把我的翻译看作是进入公有领域的,所以如果有需要的话可以直接拿去用。不过我基本上是不信任机翻的(包括简转繁,因为涉及到一些具体用词的差异),所以我觉得,有时间的话还是手动校对一遍更好。我本人对繁体中文不是十分熟悉,所以在这上面我帮不上什么忙,望理解。

Hi @3TUSK! Glad to see your reply and thanks for approving my proposal. :)
I know that machine translation has issues about wording differences between zh_cn and zh_tw.
Therefore, all machine translations will be reviewed and polished by me before making a PR,
so don't worry about that. ;)

@Nedelosk Sorry for keeping the PR opened for such a long time. I'll continue the translating today. 😶
