Several changes have been made in this commit, which together with the previous commits result in version 2.3:v2.3

+ Optimization: Originally, the core and template languages were completely separated in the logic of the Language class and you had to use "$Language->text()" to get a core language string and "$Language->template()" to get a template language string. Since this commit, the core and template language strings are still located in different files, but you now have to use "$Language->text()" for core and template language strings both. Thus, you can now even overwrite a core language string from the language file of a template if the core language string does not satisfy you.

+ Deprecated: The method "$Language->template()" was marked as deprecated and will be removed in further versions (currently, it's just an alias for "$Language->text()").

Template upgrade to version 2.3 (only for customized templates):
SEARCH:  $Language->template
REPLACE: $Language->text
