While becoming more familiar with Bitcoin Core, I came across doc/translation_process.md. I felt it could use a refresh, so I've rewritten it to hopefully make it more clear for first time readers, while also being useful as a reference guide. I've kept all previous information. The new stuff is mostly just reformatting, and adding additional details.

If someone could please review it technically, to catch any mistakes.

Due to the diff being so messy, here is a link to the original for reference and comparison.
doc/translation_process.md (to be replaced).

Thanks, I'll read it in detail later but such substantial updates to docs are very welcome

The path has since changed to src/. This needs to be updated.

I'd also like to add a note about translation files being updated periodically (most likely for pre-releases), and code with new translations not requiring any translation file updates in the PR - mostly as it can complicate merges.

Yes - note that it is already mentioned in README.md, but repeating it here doesn't hurt.

I think it would be best to only mention this once under the contact section below , and here refer to that.
