I will prepare patches to add locale_dirs for major server projects.
Regarding the script by Andreas (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/372167/),
I think it is better to check if releasenotes/source/conf.py has
locale_dirs definition.
Otherwise generated release notes are completely meaningless.
We can also propose a change to add 'locale_dir' to individual projects
gradually and as we need.
