    Fix FDL help link for gnome-desktop 3.5+ (!24) · 12adade3

    I generated this by running:
        find ./ -type f -exec sed -i 's/ghelp:fdl/help:fdl/g' {} \;
    
    By updating the translations at the same time, it should be easier on
    the translators as there's no reason to invalidate these strings.

    [Mike Fleetwood: Explain the underlying cause and distro versions.]
    This gnome-desktop commit, first included in version 3.5.5, switched the
    package from using gnome-doc-utils to yelp-tools so changed the
    installed location of the GNU FDL license file from
    /usr/share/gnome/help/fdl/C/fdl.xml to
    /usr/share/help/C/fdl/index.docbook, thus changing the yelp URI from
    'ghelp:fdl' to 'help:fdl':

        Port to new documentation infrastructure
    
    The oldest supported distributions with Gtk/GNOME 3 all have at least
    3.10, therefore use this fix unconditionally.
