Introducing a shorthand directive x-itext and x-ihtml

[simonferndriger]

This addition would allow to ommit the always present $t('...') inside the x-text/html attributes and would make it easier to read:

x-itext="welcome" and x-itext="('welcome', { name: 'John' })" for variables.

Also, why don't you make it an official Alpine plugin?

hey, thanks for the suggestion!

1. x-text & x-html are core directives, to make their I18n equivilant (e.g., x-itext), I'd have to copy code from Alpine.js source, which is alot of extra code just for a shorthand.
2. I can't make it an official plugin because I'm not the Alpine.js developer, That is @/calebporzio. Also, I highly doubt he'd be interested in adding it to the core, because i18n is considered a secondary concern for most people.

This is why I cant add that shorthand, atleast for now.

Thanks, makes sense for the current situation. However, who knows what the future might bring 😉
