ubuntu-docs SRU / Xenial translation update

Previously translations were just pulled automatically when the packs 
were built for a new release. The round about May 2014 this new system 
came in where you (at least that is the way it was described to us) must 
test and approve a langpack for each locale, otherwise no test = no release.

Since this is a non-trivial hurdle and since it has been a while, I was 
curious as to how many locales Ubuntu was releasing langpacks for in, 
let's say 2013 and how many in the last release involving langpacks.

The hurdle (and my question) here is not about getting translations done 
but the obligatory testing and how that affects locales.
