[Languages] Convert inline UI to subpages

Project Member Reported by tbuck...@chromium.org, Apr 4 2017

Issue description

Using subpages for Languages would allow us the flexibility for future improvements, as well as bring consistency with other sections. 

Inline-UI based off the following mocks:

Subpage design:

Spelling error :D

I understand the need for consistency, but not sure I understand the new design. If the idea is to replace the Language, Input, and Spell Check expandos with three subpages, SGTM. But the mocks also show per-language subpages -- we've already implemented it that way and had to change it to the current 3-dot menu UI.

AAIU, the per-language detail subpages were eventually disfavored because they normally had 0 to 2 items; often it was just one disabled item. For example, the subpage for the current UI language would look something like:

## English (United States)

Display Chromebook in this language [-O], disabled
Translate webpages in this language [O-], disabled


And a language that doesn't support translate or display would look like this:

## Aragonese

[[empty]]


(You can see the new mocks we had in August, and the changes I landed to remove the subpages, in https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=630982#c3)

To make sure we're on the same page and not looking at throw-away work, could you link to the UI review where the new mocks were finalized?

This section is one of the last holdouts with embedded expanding sections.

yyushkina@ let me know that there are further changes in discussion so I'm going to find out more about that before proceeding. So I'm un-starting/owning this for the time-being.

 dschuyler - we didn't end up touching UI on desktop settings.
