gnome-language: Fix translated language names not working when LANGUAGE env variable used

Robert Ancell requested to merge robert.ancell/gnome-desktop:language-env-variable into master

GNU gettext ignores the locale set by setlocale() when the LANGUAGE environment variable is used. This means the code to get translated langauges only returns the local language when LANGUAGE is set. Remove this variable around the call.

Note that changing an environment variable inside a program is risky, but the existing code is already not thread safe (since gettext is not).
