Add missing zh(Hans) translation pages

[lirenjie95]

As mentioned in #708 (comment), I have compiled a list of pages that are untranslated into Chinese.

• Under the folder https://github.com/processing/p5.js-website/tree/main/src/content/text-detail/zh-Hans, contact.mdx, copyright.mdx, download.mdx, privacy-policy.mdx, and terms-of-use.mdx are missing.
  • about.mdx is translated into Chinese, but it has some display issues as shown in https://p5js.org/zh-Hans/about/
• Under the folder https://github.com/processing/p5.js-website/tree/main/src/content/contributor-docs/zh-Hans, how-to-add-friendly-error-messages.mdx, fes_contribution_guide.mdx, and documentation_style_guide.mdx are missing.
  • In the https://github.com/processing/p5.js repo, how-to-add-friendly-error-messages.mdx and fes_contribution_guide.mdx were translated by me in PR [p5.js - zh(Hans)] translation of missing FES contribution docs p5.js#7667. I can just make a copy of them.
  • documentation_style_guide.mdx is also missing in the p5.js repo. Need to open a separate PR for it.

@ksen0, can you please assign this issue to me?

I still have other questions:

1. Can I use this issue to also track a PR in the p5.js repo?
2. For privacy-policy.mdx and terms-of-use.mdx, these two documents contain a lot of legal terms. Should they be excluded from the translation and only the English version be retained to ensure accurate expression?

Hi @lirenjie95 , thank you so much for your attention to this.

Yes, please feel free to use this issue to track all PRs across both repos and go ahead to work on the points you made. Feel free to split them up in multiple PRs if and where it's helpful for you.

about.mdx is translated into Chinese, but it has some display issues as shown in https://p5js.org/zh-Hans/about/

Any ideas why that's happening / if it is affecting other pages or languages? All the other tasks seem like translation tasks, but if this is a bug maybe it is better to make a separate issue for it - unless you already have a fix.

Hi @ksen0, I added some logs in the code file src/pages/[locale]/about.astro and found that the getEntry function can't find the zh-Hans/about.mdx file even though it is there. I checked for any issues with UTF-8 encoding, but it seems fine. I suspect the issue might be with the getEntry function, as it uses the startsWith function call, and the zh-Hans string contains a -, which might cause the parser to fail. (@davepagurek @limzykenneth, please correct me if I'm wrong.)

I checked other files dealing with multiple languages and found they use the getCollectionInLocaleWithFallbacks function. So, I rewrote the code file using it, which has three advantages:

1. automatically handles multilingual content;
2. automatically handles fallback to the default language;
3. provides better error handling.
