    This part of code comes from
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~eoc/openobject-server/
+ 6.1-overwrite_changes_translatable_fields/revision/4377

When the main language in the company is not English, you cannot change
the value of a translatable field in the table if you not switch the
client interface to 'en_US', because the new value will be written
to ir_translation table instead of the table model.

This complicates usability, and the default language for "model" values
hardcoded as 'en_US' should be configurable
(see https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-server/+bug/400256).

With this patch, all changes made in selected default language will be
written in 'en_US' too (in the table model) if :
          - vals are modified (it is later checked if vals are on
                translatable fields)
          - more than one language is installed
          - default language is set
          - current language = default language and not 'en_US'
Also, translations in the other languages are changed to to_translate
