Adjust German style guide for inclusive speech & check translated docs

[mkorbi]

Not sure if it is best placed here or at kubernetes/website.

Issue 1

The German language is in most cases ether using a masculine or feminine ending of a word.

Small example:

• EN: "As contributor you have to follow the code of conduct."
• DE: "Als Beitragender/e musst du dem Verhaltenscodex folgen."
  As shown above, in DE we can't express a role, person, job etc. in a neutral way.

ToDos:

• Collect potential terminology (by newspaper, magazines, blogs)
• Discuss and pick with the German i18n team a terminology
• Extend Germany Style Guide
• Scan German i18n and adjust the wording

I don't expect that we use person-oriented sentences in too many places and is most likely in the community/contribution area focused. Even more, it is important to be inclusive.

Issue 2

Check for master/slave terminology and align with the list of harmful words.
Potentially we have to do this for Germany too and write a list of harmful words.

ToDos:

• Align with wg-nameing on harmful words
• Scan German i18n for harmful wording
• Prepare a writeup for i18n harmful words and add the reference to the style guide
