Summary:
RFE: provide an option that only recreates translated files from po and original

Detailed description
Currently, the only way to use po4a to only recreate translated files from originals and .po files is calling po4a-translate. However, this has the downside of not using the config file. Since po4a already contains --no-translations option, is it possible to also include something like --only-translations?

But if you can convince me that it is really needed, I will be glad to reconsider my position ;)
