Include resource name with label

It is a Good mod for me. I like it. But it Will be perfect for me if it could put not only icon+quantity, but it adds a label (as "iron"+Icon+quantity, or copper+Icon+quantity).

It's important when number or resources multiplies with some big mods.

Add resource name to map-tag's text.

So the problem is, what if there are two players on the same force (for which the tag will be displayed), and one speaks Klingon and the other speaks JavaScript. How can the script decided which localization to use?

LuaForce.add_chart_tag takes a string, not a LocalisedString. So somehow there has to be a way to pick which player to use for localization.

Could do something fancy with LuaPlayer.request_translation, like picking the player(s) with the most play time, or something. But this also gets complicated quickly, because the response is an event that will happen after the request for translation.

I think I'm just going to make a global setting that allows appending the un-localized resource name...
