trait StringTranslationTrait

Wrapper methods for \Drupal\Core\StringTranslation\TranslationInterface.

Using this trait will add t() and formatPlural() methods to the class. These must be used for every translatable string, similar to how procedural code must use the global functions t() and \Drupal::translation()->formatPlural(). This allows string extractor tools to find translatable strings.

If the class is capable of injecting services from the container, it should inject the 'string_translation' service and assign it to $this->stringTranslation.
