Make JsonRepeaters translatable

[antonioribeiro]

Summary

If you create a json repeater and make it translatable, Twill will save it correctly in all languages, but then it will not be able to load it back into the CMS frontend because the trait is not translation aware.

It is translatable, but I was using it wrong, this is how you do it:

• Create the JSON field on the main table, not the translations
• Set the form fields as "translated" => true
• Done! 😆

Thank you, you saved my life!

In case @antonioribeiro's solution is not clear enough:

• JSON field goes on the main table (not the _translations one)
• There's no need to specify the translation on the @formField('repeater') field (in the main form Blade view)
• In the repeater Blade file, set 'translated' => true on the inputs you want to translate (you can translate some of them or all of them)
• On the model, don't add the json field in the $translatedAttributes array
• Add it however on both the $fillable and $casts arrays

This is the working solution on my current Twill version, which is 2.11.0.
