Localizing help and making it updatable #3206

Description

Localising help means translating the help text to non-EN-US languages and including those translations in the module. PowerShell does a great job handling this, but you must design it into the module.

As it turns out, the PowerShell team have some great guidance for this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/developer/help/writing-help-for-windows-powershell-modules?view=powershell-7.3

Also, it looks like the module does not support updatable help either. You could consider fixing this.
