features.v2/v3/v4.json carried every name, description and definition
twice, once in English and once in German, inside a file that is source
code, is vendored byte-identically into the collector and is served as
the consented catalog. Source stays English. The German strings already
existed a second time in the frontend locale file, which is what the
consent dialog actually renders (UsageCatalog reads
productUsage.catalog.<key>, never the JSON), so the copy in the catalog
was a duplicate that could only ever drift.
The `de` fields are gone from all three catalogs, their frontend copies
and the inventory definitions; the docs coverage file and
FEATURE_COVERAGE.md list English only. Nothing on the wire changes: the
report schema is derived from the keys, and the catalog's text is not
part of any signature or consent version string.
The coverage test now pins the catalog to the en locale verbatim and
requires the de locale to cover every key and field, without dictating
its wording. The collector holds the same catalog files and needs the
same change to stay byte-identical, plus its German catalog strings
moved into its own locale file; that is filed there.
